By walking through the front doors, as at most airports in the world.
You realize walking into an airport is no different than walking into a mall?
I think one has planes.
And?
Anyone, anytime can stroll into any airport.
Can't you?
No. Tegel Airport, soon as you walked in, you were at security.
It's closed now, but that only means you can't even stroll in at all.
Curious.
Was every person, passenger or not, screened?
If you went in, yes, you went through security. There was no pre-security area.
That would be the least-fun trip to the airport ever.
Not that any of the big ones are "fun", anymore.
I think I can say with 100% certainty that I have never had fun in an airport pre-security area. What's your idea of fun?
You were never at an airport before you were 12?
I was, but that doesn't mean I had fun. It's like going to a government building or a train station: it's a purpose-built place where you have to behave and there aren't really activities. How is that fun?
From what I can recall, I didn't think DFW has anything but baggage checks and ticket counters outside the secure area. You can technically go into the airport, but there's no reason to if you're not a passenger, and security would probably make you move if you tried to sit anywhere.
What about paraplegics?
Wheels stroll.
Never heard of a stroller?
I haven't been to an airport in years where food was available outside the secure side.
I've never been in an airport that didnt have at least a food court, much less several branded restaurants, available in the general pre-security areas.
So, what do non-passengers eat while they're waiting?
Bus drivers, limo operators, other services?
They do what?
Toronto Pearson, Terminal 1
NOTE - Before Security
Top of my head, Pearson, both terminals BEFORE security: Terminal 3: Subway, A&W, Freshíí, 3 Tim Hortons
Terminal 1: 4 Tims, Swiss Chalet, KFC, McD's...
I've been there over 3,000 times.
Yes, mostly they eat the bus drivers, but if a limo driver is a little too slow, well....
