This anecdote from the Times (UK) gives a flavour of just how complicated air travel has become today:
1.25pm: Boots says its airport stores will be open for 24 hours where necessary. "We will be giving away any essential items that passengers need while they wait such as nappies, wipes, baby formula and food as well as essential healthcare items. Our pharmacists are also working across stores to make sure we can supply passengers with any emergency supplies of prescription-only medicines that are needed, and our healthcare teams will be on hand to give healthcare advice or help to anyone waiting for their flights.”
It's not clear how long a model of relying on corporate goodwill to run such a system is sustainable.
