The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (as they request to be referred to) is the world's busiest,and broke a pretty incredible record this week. Atlanta Airport is the first airport to pass a hundred million passengers in a single calendar year. As you'd expect, they're having a pretty astronomical celebration to commemorate this milestone, and including throwing a huge party for their hundred millionth passenger.
However,as noted by View from the Wing, the process by which they're selecting the hundred millionth passenger is arbitrary at best:"As there is no single entryway to count passengers entering into the terminals on a one by one basis, and the accounting firm will serve the airport pinpoint to the record day when the 100 million threshold is crossed. According to the airport spokesperson Reese McCranie,a passenger will be randomly chosen from that day and be given a prize to be determined to celebrate the occasion."The post What Did Atlanta Airport’s Hundred Millionth Passenger win? appeared first on One Mile at a Time.
