Getting off an aircraft by using a set of mobile steps and getting out on to the tarmac is so much more fun than going through a boring airbridge right into a modern terminal. It evokes all those romantic feelings of a golden age of air travel, before it got boring and annoying.

Of course, doing this from a zeppelin would be even more cool.


2023-08-20 Rerun commentary: The last time I got off a plane onto the tarmac via steps was...

At Sydney International Airport a few months ago, returning from my most recent trip. I was somewhat gobmsacked. I didn't even know Sydney Airport still had mobile steps to do that with modern jet planes. I've done it in various other, usually small, airports around the world, but never before in Sydney.
