- What you buy at the airport reveals where you’re from
For example, travelers from the Northeast are more likely to buy allergy medication than in any other region, while West Coast travelers purchase more eye drops than East Coast travelers.
…When it comes to pre-flight sweets, West Coasters go for gummy bears or sour gummy worms, while East Coasters prefer salty and sweet flavors..Health and wellness magazines are more popular with West Coasters. They also go for tabloids..East Coasters lean towards high-end fashion and beauty magazines..
- United Technologies is splitting into 3 companies which is interesting because it was created in the first place when its parent was split into 3 companies. The other two were Boeing and United Airlines.
Re: United how interesting! I’m always confused whenever people talk about another “United.” Does this mean that Delta originally made faucets???
The only thing I’ll buy at the airport is a bottle of water, and then only if I forgot to bring my empty bottle…
