It is often the case that the little things make traveling less enjoyable than it should be
. It is typically a result of a many of small things together that take the fun out of traveling. For instance, waiting for a long time to get a ticket or losing a bag can make the whole journey unbearable. Then, to add to that, if you have to get double-checked at security or are not able to find the vehicle rental that want that can also prove an inconvenience.
These things don't ruin the trip on their own, but they make it much more stressful than it should be. On their own, they are not vacation or trip killers like certain other things could be; things like reservations being lost or sitting on the tarmac for six hours waiting to take off. These types of things are avoidable and make such a mess of your plans and are so uncomfortable that they can ruin the trip entirely.
There should be some things that run smoother when you go to the airport. Sometimes it seems like they make the processes and the way things have to be done much harder and much more complex than they should be. It's not like the airport is a giant gift shop that they have to keep you in there as long as possible so that you buy all the useless gizmos and trinkets that you have room for in your luggage.
With that, there is no viable reason to keep you tied up any longer than completely necessary. So it can be concluded that running an airport and airlines is a complicated job and things must be proficient in order to be safe and sound. However, things that could be simple such as boarding and buying tickets are getting to be inexplicably blown up just to make the whole process last a longer time.
You may want to think about whether or not they recognize they have to keep busy for a while and that if they accomplish that with dull, dreary and prolonged tasks then you will fail to notice the time it takes to board that flight. No doubt this sounds like some sort of conspiracy but when you feel like a mouse trapped in a labyrinth and cannot get to your meal ticket then you begin to speculate about things. It may be that is not a real conspiracy but if someone took a little time to work out a solution for all the minute problems then the bigger issues could be more endurable.
