Escalators

Escalators to enter plane

Sure, most airports have those covered walkways from the terminal to the plane, but there are still plenty of places where you have to walk up those moveable stairs that they roll up to the plane. It seems obvious, but they should make those escalators. Easier in general, and a great relief to handicapped, elderly, etc.

       Actually, a moving walkway in those long extensible corridors would also be very welcome.

       I would prefer not to.

       Denver is one long linear terminal, with 3 long sections of 6 lane moving sidewalks (3 each direction).

       I recently read that Denver's new airport is actually larger than Denver itself.

       Yeah, I read that too, in Time. They did a big feature last week on airport security.
