Blogging from Oslo Airport Gardemoen

Blogging from Oslo Airport is a nightmare like most airports. However, you would expect this airport to be more online savvy than most. Telenor, the Norwegian telegiant, is providing free wireless Internet access in Budapest Airport, which I immediately recognized and gave kudos.

The express train works like a dream, though, and the ticketless credit card solution, is very smooth. 20 minutes from the central station (or Sentralstation, as they say up here) and you are in the Gardemoen Airport, one of the three Scandinavian hubs (the other being Copenhagen and Stockholm).

I wonder when the old, old, old men in the airport management teams will find out the fast and free Internet access will make a better company. The customers will be more will informed, not so bothered with the apparently unavoidable delays, being able to buy MORE AIRLINE TICKETS. I could go on forever.

OOPS

Three or more times and I finally went online so i could be able to write this hiccup. Duh!

Old management teams suck.

Big time.

New rule: all management teams must have at least ONE PERSON UNDER 30 YEARS OLD.

Checked in early and I hold an aisle seat on row 2 with an economy tickets in my inbox.

Good night.
