I remember once flying into a US airport, cannot remember which one, and these large transporters attached themselves to the plane then shuttled everybody off to the arrivals docking station. Something rumbles in my mind they may have used both sides of the aircraft to disembark (but I may be, and probably am, talking nonsense).

For international arrivals at IAD, passengers disembark directly into the "moon buggy" and are then taken to the arrivals building.

I wasn't sure if DFW did anything special to accommodate two A380s which are parked near each other.
I had planned to get on a domestic flight. Since every second counted, I wanted to avoid the traffic jam caused by crossing the aisle. Instead, I'm taking an earlier flight.

I have read the blog.
If you are reading a blog that irritates you WHY continue.
There are so many Blogs that you would be reading and enjoying.
As a traveller I appreciate reading how someone as well travelled as Ben finds it, that review helps me to make informed decisions as to who I will fly with.
If you dont like it - why are you spending your time commenting on this person on another forum.
If you surround yourself with negativity, guess what you become - a glass pretty empty kind of person.
I think the real reason is what my Mum called the "green eyed monster", you are jelly of Ben for having such an amazing life
