The Verge:
If I had to pick places I’d expect to see rocking chairs, front porches, living rooms, and pretty much anywhere else would rank far above cavernous and stark airport terminals, yet that’s probably where I’m most likely to see them. And while I could imagine an aggressively whimsical designer somewhere throwing a bunch of rocking chairs in a terminal, I had a hard time seeing how they’d sprung up in so many airports across the country. Why rocking chairs? Where did they come from?
I’ve only ever seen these at the Nashville International Airport. I thought they were just a quirky thing specific to the city.
I was going to say we have them at Charlotte, NC (CLT) then I read the article and saw that it started here by accident. Good to know.
First place I saw them was Seattle. I think they are nice. Now if could only order a beer while sitting in front of window at an airport then that would be truly great.
Young kids. Rocking chairs are great to lull them to sleep so they aren’t screaming the whole flight
