I too have done a fair bit of traveling in the past year or two and have noticed a lack of Internet Access in airports. I have never seen an Internet Cafe in an airport but several I have been to have had some sort of Internet access. Specifically, Salt Lake City Utah has little rooms you can rent with computers and Internet access. Several airports I have been in have had Internet kiosks. I think Chicago is one airport with this system. All of these require a credit card to use which can be a drawback. I would also think that the coffee shop atmosphere of a cafe would be a welcome addition to the process of communicating. Ulla, can I invest?

I've been at the following airports: Kansas City, Minneapolis, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Seattle, Newark, Frankfurt (Germany), Cologne (Germany), Amsterdam (Netherlands), and Stavanger (Norway). I'm also familiar with airports in major cities such as Munich, Brussels, London, Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Sydney, and Auckland. And yet, at all these airports, one thing is missing. How come I can't remember seeing any Internet Cafes in any of these airports?
