I actually enjoy being in airports. So I kind of get this. But 18 days? No, I don't think I could have handled it that long.

Normally I would think he was nuts, but take a look at that air port! It looks like a vacation destination!

I think he provided a service: security evaluation. He was already there. Be missed a flight.

It was not just any airport. The one he stayed in apparently has amazing amenities.

Yeah...that's a sweet airport. It's not like being stuck at Newark or some other crappy airport.

There are a fair amount of homeless people that live in the Airport.

For the story posted---not sure why the guy felt the need to continuously print new boarding documents, unless he left the secure area and needed to get back in.
