SF: AIRPORT LOOKS TO AVOID TURBULENCE

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Grassroots Information Coordination Center (GICC) : One Thread

The operators of San Francisco International Airport
don't want to take a chance of following the examples of
new airports at Denver; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia;
Milan, Italy; Oslo, Norway, or Hong Kong.

"Those are well-known disasters," said Jason Yuen,
chairman of the project's advisory board.

Problems at those airports, ranging from canceled flights
and delayed cargo to systemwide computer
breakdowns and a luggage-eating baggage system,
delayed travelers and cost millions of dollars.
