Diary of a Gen Z Student: The entertainment value of people watching at the airport

"I have always been partial to some people watching. Whenever I find myself somewhere with some good footfall, I like to survey the general public, noticing their idiosyncrasies and lunacies."

Jane Cowan: "Over the years, I’ve observed many types of air traveller." Picture: Moya Nolan

Perhaps the best place for people watching, as you’ll see every type of person, in an airport. 

As you make your may from check-in through to your final destination, you come to understand that you’re getting some serious entertainment value out of that plane ticket.
