Travel to Exotic Locales

The best part about traveling to a smaller airport is that you often take a smaller plane and there is no jetway. (The worst part is that you often take a smaller plane and there is no jetway.) Then you can walk down the stairs to the tarmac just like they do in the old movies. It is very romantic. I imagined that I was boarding my own private jet to fly away to an exotic location. Unfortunately my business must be failing because I had to subsidize my trip with all of those strangers on my plane. It made it very hard to maintain the illusion.

Having the stairs allows you to take the classic picture with steps going up to the airplane, ready to whisk you away to a new adventure. It is even more mysterious at night.
