This airport tried to be cutesy and put up a sign limiting “hug time” instead of a more generic time limit. Have you ever heard of a “full English breakfast”? We’ll tell you all about it. There’s a café in Tokyo which discourages socializing. Find out why! People in China have pets. Isn’t that cute! Here’s a great tourist attraction in Turkey! Not into that? How about a video game museum in Kyoto instead? Or a theme park in Orlando? But why stop there? Here are some other links to random news tidbits.
It’s like one of those daytime TV talk shows in text form.
This sounds like it was written by an AI chatbot.

You’re a ciggerrette!
People in China have pets.
So many strange cultural traditions over there!

it’s actually a time limit on how long you can stay in the drop-off zone, which is very reasonable
Seriously you’ve been in the car together for a relatively long time already. Say your longer goodbyes then

I can’t speak to all US airports but at MCO (Orlando, FL) you’d be lucky to get a ten second hug in before the security guard starts harassing you about clearing the drop-off area.
My favourite was in Toronto Pearson International to pick up an elderly aunt at the airport there … this was about 10 years ago … I don’t know the rules and I don’t go visit this damned airport every day, I’m not from the city but I know my way around … all I wanted to do was pick up my aunt who said she was ready and waiting … couldn’t find her even though we gave each other clear directions and locations … I missed her in about ten seconds between quick parking stops at the entry
Traffic cop told me to move along, I told him what I was doing, tells me to move along, told him it was my elderly aunt who needs help … MOVE ALONG! and threatens to ticket me otherwise … I move along … and can’t turn around so I follow the lane … ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE FREEWAY!
Then spent half an hour trying to figure out the freeway to get back to the airport … did it again and found my aunt … loaded her up as quickly as possible while the same traffic cop kept looking at us.
There wasn’t even time for a hug! It felt like we fleeing East Germany before the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Not surprised at all. Pearson is the worst airport I’ve ever had the pleasure of passing through.
Pearson Airport is still like that at the dropoffs and arrivals areas… luckily there is a cell phone waiting lot now where you can hang out until you know your buddy is at the pickup area.
That sounds about right.
Imma sit on a blanket and eat pancakes in protest but i want you to film my arrest
Honk honk! Get a room!!
No shit. These guys are assholes. I really fucking hate the Orlando International Airport. Never before have I had to wait so long in line for security even when there was no one else in line.
What if you arrive early, didn’t do online check-in, and have to wait for the check-in desk to open? It maybe I don’t understand what you mean by “drop-off area”.
It’s just a road and sidewalk in front of the building where people who are giving rides pull over so their passengers can get out.
A second is long enough. It’s like 1000 milliseconds.
Depends how fast you’re moving. The key is to approach light speed just as you reach the terminal.
Can they actually enforce this. Its a free world fuck em.
Read the article. It’s a light hearted way of telling you you can only stop there for a short time to drop someone off.
Can’t, fucking is limited to 2 minutes.
What do you do with the other 1:30?
Your mother
Ah so you spend the remaining 1:00 at the clinic then. Got it.
