A Flyertalk Game: Terminal Entertainment
 
Each month I get a newsletter in the apartment I am in and each time there is a quiz where you can enter and win $100. This month's had a distinctive Flyertalk theme and thought I'd get the answers here but that the thread had possibility of becoming something of a quiz, so here we go:

1) This airport has 3,100 slot machines located in Terminals 1 & 2.
I'm guessing LAS

2) There's a putting green in the terminal and a bar that rents putters and balls for $4

3) Terminal 2 has a Kids on the Fly airport themed play area

4) There are 20 accreditted museum galleries located throughout this West coast airport

I know SFO has a small museum, never used the domestic terminal though....

5) Hospitality host hand out cookies or seasonal gifts at this Midwestern airport

Every answer warrants the production of a new question. Please try and keep to a vaguely 'airport' theme with the question :)

Play safe ;)

Amazingly, lots of airports have putting greens, not to mention Delta Crown Rooms. But I'm going to go with Sam Snead's Tavern at PBI. Bit of a cheat as I've never been there and just googled it. :D

Now, do I produce the new question or do you?

You, the seasoned traveller ;)

CVG is completely in KY. CVG is of course the airport for Cincinnati, OH.

2 other airports that popped in my head as answers to this question: DCA and IAD (ok, IAD might be a bit of a stretch though....)

I was thinking of NRT in Chiba prefecture, but that one works, too.

Is that the one where you can exit the terminal directly into Switzerland, France or another country?

What about Kansas City? I'be always loved that whole KC KA v KC MS thing :D

My question - easy one to start with:

7) At which airport in the US are visitors actually encouraged to go look at a nuclear bomber?

The Smithsonian at Dullas has the Enola Gay. The Museum is in a 'terminal' so they say. I have been there and it is a treat to see. I encourage anyone that has time to go and see it. You can walk thru it in less than an hour, but take more time if you can.

I should have been more specific and added 'US state' and I was looking for CVG in that case ^

I've a lengthy layover at Dulles on 24 Dec, I always thought I'd have to go off airport, the long way round down Rte 28 to see the Udvar-Hazy. Can I really access it (presuming it is open of course) without too much hassle? My other option is 5hrs in RCC, ACs and the small BA lounge! :eek:

Just take a taxi, you can see the building off the runways there. I hope it is open for your sake, it is a real treat to see the 707, Concord, Enterprise, Enola Gay, SR-71 Blackbird, and other things. I was there within the first month of opening, so not all things were on display as they were still adding to the exhibts.
