...cavernous, convention-hall interior, has its user-unfriendly quirks. Passengers who are dropped off at the airport by cab or rental-car van find themselves, for some odd reason, at the exit. To reach the ticket counter, they have to lug their bags up an escalator. The three gate concourses are connected by a train system that is fast and convenient-except when it's not working (which lately has not been very often and usually for only short periods). Unlike the terminals at Atlanta's Hartsfield, which has a similar layout, Denver's are so far apart-to give...
...airport's command center, located on the 10th floor of a glass office building between the main terminal and the first gate concourse, offers an impressive display of state-of-the-art airport security. In the main room, a bank of 14 video monitors displays scenes from 825 cameras arrayed around the airport.

...option. Last week Lufthansa began operating an all-business-class flight from Newark International Airport to Dusseldorf, Germany, using planes and crew from the elite Swiss charter company PrivatAir. Passengers at each airport will be escorted through security by an airline agent and then board from a gate next to Lufthansa's club lounge. The Boeing business jet will have 48 big seats, each with a Sony Watchman. There will be plainclothes security officers onboard and a flight attendant for every 12 passengers. Price: $5,813 round trip, compared with $5,906 for regular business class. If the concept flies...
