An airport exit especially for tourists, dressed with things and people to show the tourists that they really have arrived in the country or state.
Some examples:
London: could have a man dressed as a Beefeater, a man in a bowler hat, Kings Road punks, a red phone box, red london bus, a zebra
crossing, a man in a kilt, a Big Issue seller, a pantomime mad cow
Cairo: could have some camels, a man in a Fez, a troupe of belly dancers, lots of sand.
For domestic airports in the USA, they could be by state.

" I laddie, we have arrived in the wee hours at London " |
|
| |
Him.." over there in the corner holding a calling card by the exit which reads.The Mcdonalds of London " |
|
| |
"We call the laddie in the kilt, big Mac." |
|
| |
"Yes, I see he's pleased to see me." |

I really think that if I had arrived at Munich airport 5 years ago to be greeted by huge fat men in lederhosen with handlebar moustaches eating enormous sausages and quaffing from foaming litre mugs of beer whilst amassed, fur-coated grannies scowled and pushed in front of me, dragging their deformed yappy dogs along upon which I was forced by a disinterested desk clerk to fill in endless numbers of forms in triplicate all accompanied by the dulcet tones of Falco (breathes in)...I would have turned tail and fled. |

As it was, I wasn't. Thankfully. |
|
| |
I think [squeak] hit the nail on the head there. |

"And in other news, a worldwide rash of costumed pickpockets has sprung up. The criminals exclusively target the tourist exits of airports...." |

It could serve as a quick trivia run-down of the region you're about to enter: |
|
| |
Through the tourist exit you see:
A.) A red phone box.
B.) Someone in a bowler hat.
C.) A red double-decker bus.
D.) [po] In an alligator costume. |
|
| |
Just to give you an idea of the region's relative sense of humor, funfactor, etc ... |
|
| |
Tomorrow down the tourist exit we have:
A.) [Letsbuildafort] screaming in terror.
B.) [po] Chasing [LBaF] with a tree branch for listing.
C.) [jutta] Shaking her head in disbelief.
D.) Someone in a bowler hat (for the second time in as many days). |
|
| |
E.) Spiderman uptop of a crane at Tower Bridge. |

//with tree branch//
[po], he's calling you a monkey now... |
|
| |
If I changed it to "baseball bat" would she be Babe Ruth? |
|
| |
<Tries to remove image of [po] running around waving truncheon from mind>
Now look what you've done [lbaf]. |
|
| |
Filling the terminal with crap is probably a fire hazard, not to mention a safety issue. How 'bout murals?
[Lbaf], put [po] down! You don't know where she's been. |
|
| |
All I can say is that i am glad that finally an Airport Idea got slaughtered! |
|
| |
Does the Englishman ? in the kilt have anything on underneath it,and does he supply proof?
Might be enough to send some people back on the plane. |

// a pantomime mad cow//
This isn't Dulles International then? Or is it Canada nowadays? |
