Traveller Comments....

"The Columbia airport is atrocious when it comes to sleeping. Luckily, the chance that you'll ever have a layover is slim to none " - #1 Piedmont Fan

"One of the airport managers suggested we sleep over at the chapel. " - Jim Anderson

"I noticed an old ticket counter that was no longer being used, so I went behind the counter and made a bed on the floor in front of the old luggage conveyer belt. " - ?

The Columbia airport is atrocious when it comes to sleeping. Luckily, the chance that you'll ever have a layover is slim to none (what with Columbia being a small and relatively insignificant city). I showed up waaaaay too early for a flight and ended up trying to snooze for an hour or so. The unsecured areas have nothing but straightback rocking chairs, and the secured areas have those horrible bench-type seats with immovable armrests. The food selection is terrible - limited to a cruddy coffee bar and a cruddy gift shop. My advice is that you arrive on time and stop for lunch before you get there."
