!!Killing a few Hours
Ideas for how to spend a few hours of delay or layover]]> Fri, 28 Apr 2006 16:40:22 +0000 mod http://frequentflyerwiki.pbworks.com/TampaTPA.2006-04-28-16-40-22 http://frequentflyerwiki.pbworks.com/TampaTPA.2006-04-28-16-40-22 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheFrequentFlyerWiki/~3/GI1JSc4Y_iw/PhiladelphiaPHL.2006-04-28-16-36-57 email@hidden () * The Northwest Club in Term E is closed (presumably forever).
* You can get a wifi signal in the US Airways club between B and C if you sit by the windows that look out onto the food court.
* The Crown room club is pretty lame, since it is before security, so if you end up with a flight delay you have to go back through security

Once touted as the Biggest Airport in the World, D/FW is fairly daunting, and expanding apace. It has a relatively user-friendly layout, however, with semi-circular terminals laid out around two main spines traversed by light-rail lines. It's as predictable as Atlanta's %5BAtlantaHartsfieldATL|Hartsfield%5D, for instance, without the vast rectangular warehouse-like feel; D/FW localities always feel compact and cozy. D/FW is a much more rational place than %5BNewYorkJFK|JFK%5D or %5BChicagoOHareORD|O'Hare%5D. Connections are generally easy to find and make, though if you fly on American (which does most of the business at D/FW) your next gate may be quite a hike.

Use the secure side monorail to get from one side to the otehr

!!Getting a Cocktail

* As with food, good luck.TGI Fridays in Terminal C is a good bet as well as taking the quick monorail over to Terminal D. Don't worry about security, the monorail is within the secure side of the terminal.

!!Clubs

American Airlines Admirals club in A,B,C,D. You can by a day pass for $50.00

!!Killing a few Hours

* You are vastly far from any point of interest in the Metroplex. The closest city is Arlington, a few miles south, but unless the Rangers are playing the night you lay over, there ain't much to do there.

Huge Grapevine Mills mall is one mile north of the airport and great for shopping, eating or killing a few hours.
