The airport is no longer just a place where you pick up your loved ones returning from a business trip or where you board for an exotic vacation, it’s the best place on earth for people watching,
and for finding unconventional sights. It starts from the moment you walk through the gate you might see Santa on his way to the Miss, a celeb waiting for security checks just like everyone else, people falling asleep in impossible body passions, and the kids got to love them, and the way they turn any location to an amusement park. We have for you the most unusual, hilarious, and just plain weird sights spotted on airports on the ground, and up in the air. So fasten your seatbelt it’s going to be a bumpy ride!
Selfie comes first
When will the selfie madness stop? It looks like it’s here to stay, and people are finding new, and more dangerous ways than ever before to take a selfie. Safety should come first and above it all. But this guy? He doesn’t seem to have his priorities straight. Well, after closer examination turns out he got us – it was photoshopped.
Power nap
This poor guy is so tired and jetlagged he is ready for his power nap wherever and whenever he can get it. It always amazes us how people come up with creative ways to get comfortable and fall asleep while they are waiting to board. We can tell this guy’s future for him – terrible neck pains followed by horrible back pains.
Jets real talk
This is quite a sight, two jets catching a moment before taking off into the air again and laughing about the aircrew. This timely taken photo shows illusions can happen anywhere.

Nutty Santa
Guess this Santa Claus wasn’t a good boy not this year anyway. Judging from the security guards surrounding him, he is going to be late for his gifts dropping and kids might get very disappointed. Better call in reinforcement, get Miss Clause, and the little elves, they will figure it out before Christmas morning comes.
All aboard to the tantrum plane
Parents all over the world know traveling with kids can be sometimes enjoyable, and sometimes challenging, especially when they are at this stage where they have a tantrum frenzy when they hear the word “NO”. We’re guessing this little girl is not just jetlagged, she is also exhausted after throwing a fist at the security guards for taking her snacks away. Hope she’ll wake up sunny side up.
Joyride
Keeping up with the kid’s theme, this little one has found an alternative way of getting around, just hop on Dad’s suitcase, and you’re good to go. On second thought she might be trying to stop him from boarding but from the looks of it, you shouldn’t mess with him when he is getting ready for his much-needed vacation.

Spread your wings and fly
This photo is 50 shades of confusing falcons have wings, why will they need to travel couch? Wonder how the boarding process looked and how the aircrew and staff managed to put the seatbelt for taking off and landing.

Keep on walking
Women often wonder, what do you have to do to get stunning legs? A special diet? Fitness program? Well, according to this all you need is a reflecting mirror, and that will do the trick. The airport is apparently, a place to keep fit and stretch your legs out.
Sleeping beauty
This princess needs her beauty sleep, and no boarding delay is going to interfere with that. Women know a beauty regime is crucial for maintaining a fresh look. What’s confusing here is how the hell did she get into this position? How will she get out, and most importantly, where is the circus? Because we’re guessing this limber girl is part of some act.
Superwoman flying up in the air
When the rich and famous travel they do it with style and luxury. Lucky for us they share it all over social media so we can keep up with how they do it and dream of boarding without a Q on
private jets. Only the stunning Wonder-woman can look so pretty before boarding. Bet she even looks gorgeous after 20 hours flights.
Learning to fly (and land)
Guess this pilot missed a few lessons or doze off when they were teaching how to land properly. Guess this pilot thought if there’s autopilot no need to bother and learn how to navigate. Judging from this landing, he got some explaining to do.
Three minutes and counting
Airport’s farewells can be hard, especially for a young loving couple but the orders here are strict, you have three little minutes for a goodbye kiss, no more. But what happens when a couple is kissing less than three minutes? Could get embracing if it’s just a peck
on the cheek.

Feeling lucky
When you finally land you want to get your luggage and get the hell out of the airport. But when you see this roulette wheel, you might get in the mode for some gambling and trying your luck. Whatever you do just keep in mind the House always wins.
Employee of the month
Not sure if this is the security checks qua or the immigration line, either way, this is one hard working man ready for his break. Guess we all know who will be winning “Employee of the month award”. Will give you a little hint someone who really enjoy a little game of cards.
We’re on the road to nowhere
This is the worst airline commercial ever in the history of adverting. Someone should get his head checked for placing the plane in the wrong directions and causing a decrease in Turkish airlines revenue for this quarter. Lucky for them this can easily be fixed with a little Photoshop and duct tape.

Namaste
Yoga is one of the best ways to reduce stress and get in shape. It’s also a great way to make sure you are all stretched out before a long flight. This blonde is channeling her inner yogi for the whole world to see. Guess she missed the part where the real eastern yogists recommend to practice yoga in private.

Bear necessities
This poor bear is looking for his boarding gate and got lost just like the rest of us. Guess airports can be confusing for humans and wildlife alike. How will this end? Suppose Alaska airport should rethink their location as they are clearly interfering with nature’s calls.
Best dad ever
keeping your kids entertained while you wait for boarding can be quite challenging but this dad, has it figured out. He lets his little girls be, and they are improving his look by applying stickers of all shapes and sizes. Next, they will do his hair, and if there’s a delay they will move on to makeup, and maybe some mani-pedi.

The big adventures of the little Pingu
Guess Pingu and his family has finally crossed over from stop-motion clay to reality, and now they are off to new adventures. Naturally, the airport will be the first stop and gate to the rest of the world. What we are wondering is where are they keeping their passports and luggage?
Love is in the air
This couple is being there for one another, through security checks, never-ending boarding process and now? Just catching a breather before the gate is open. This body position is a mix of endearing and uncomfortable.

Just an illusion
What do you see here? a young woman on her way to boarding, and she just wants her comfy travel cushion with her to get some sleep. If you’re seeing anything else other than a pillow than that’s an optical illusion for you, and we managed to fool you.
Good night
Another dosing passenger trying to catch some sleep,
and get rid of jetlagged before it even began. Suppose it was a little chilly so instead of putting something on or using a blanket he just took literary a page out of a homeless guidebook for public sleeping. This is a fine way to catch up on the latest news and get some sleep.
The Kardashians are here
The masters of fashion, style, and reality TV caught on camera in all their glory. Rocking high heel sandals while trying to get to the right gate, when the crowd is all over them. Guess they are on their way to their private gate, otherwise, don’t see how they can pull off the same fresh look when they land back on the ground.

Destination wedding
Don’t see Keanu Reeves or Winona Ryder but the destination wedding is on the move. The airport is quite a location to pop the question, not sure if she is saying yes or no but this is clearly leaving a mark on other passengers, they have something to tell back home and so do we.
When your dog got to go
Apparently, before boarding, everyone needs to take care of business, men, women, kids, and…pets. This airport is designed to meet everyone’s needs and this little fire extinguisher has multiples uses, can be for safety and putting out a fire, and for the little doggies.
