There’s a Financial Times columnist named Tyler Brûlé–yes, I know the name is a bit far fetched–who writes a regular Saturday piece called “Fast Lane“. Perhaps his favorite topic (other than men’s handbags) are airports. When he’s not penning yet another indictment about Heathrow, he often puts out endless column inches about the world’s best terminals–I recall that he’s fond of Tokyo. Well as far as I’m concerned, Munich is probably the best European airport these days–well laid out, clean (what a concept) and fully integrated with rail rapid transit. I bet even Tyler agrees that it’s not a bad place to transit through. In any case, that’s where I intend to be early tomorrow morning. I have a couple of scientific meetings over the weekend–one related to the European Decade of the Mind initiative.
