KILLING FOUR HOURS AT MEXICO CITY AIRPORT
We arrived in Mexico, went through customs to get our “transit” stamp and then tried to find our terminal. Signage at Mexico City Airport is HORRIBLE – they should hire the awesome environmental graphic designers at my firm to re-do it. Anyway, they only post where a flight is about two hours before the flight takes off. So for several hours, you have no idea what’s going on. It’s lame.

Our tickets said a specific gate, so we went to that gate and sat around watching my video iPod. We kept checking the screens and the gate we were at and no information was coming up for a flight to Los Angeles – and our flight was an hour away. So we decided to move around… we then saw another screen and realized our flight was at a different gate so we finally found it. I wish they had TV’s like other airports that posted flight information. It’s really frustrating.

And the “informacion” people have no computer and only a piece of paper of flights so they were no help.

Anyway, we made our flight and had three more hours of flying until we were in LA…
