cavanami Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Just in case you haven't figured it out... How to Spot an American in Any Airport https://www.yahoo.com/travel/how-to-spot-an-american-in-an-airport-104190326577.html It doesn’t take a red, white, and blue suitcase and a T-shirt reading “God Bless the USA†to flag someone as an American — especially in a foreign airport. We Yanks tend to stick out. Not that that’s necessarily a bad thing; we love it when people walk up to us when we’re traveling overseas and ask, “Are you American?†But a lot of times, they don’t even have to ask. We say and do things in airports that out ourselves immediately as residents of the Land of the Free. Here are the top 10 ways to spot Americans in an airport. 1. They make a beeline for the McDonald’s. (not me) 2. They’re in sweatpants. (opppps, got me) 3. They’re wearing baseball caps. (not me) 4. They make fun of where they are… 5. …that is, if they even know where they are.(not me) 6. They try to cut into the security line.(not me) 7. They strip in the security line.(not me) 8. They call it a “security line.†9. They think that asking for things loudly is more effective…(not me) 10. They’re drunk. (no comment) .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YimSiam Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I happen to be American, but I'm not drunk because I"m American, I'm drunk because it just happens when I travel, nothing to do with my nationality. And as far as cutting the line? Nonsense! We are almost certainly more line-conscious than the majority of international travelers - Chinese? Arab? Indian? All will be massing, rather than in a line/queue. What lines we cut, is because it's Business class, or Trusted Traveller program...
