This is the only available waiting area at the Vishakapatnam Airport. When I first alighted outside this airport, I was amused at its sheer size, resembling a quaint bus terminal in some far-away holiday destination. Smaller than Bangalore's now non-functional HAL Airport. Interesting, considering the city is an important naval base. And there is some holiday traffic too. Notice the picture of Dr B R Ambedkar hung on the wall, and the Security Check entry that opens only about half an hour before departure. A new terminal is getting built and may be thrown open soon. But nothing can beat this cottage like structure for an air travel terminal.
