Quote of the Day

"Frankfurt's airport, with a work force in excess of forty thousand, is the biggest single-site employer in Germany. London's Heathrow employs fifty-five thousand people directly - meteorologists, air traffic controllers, pilots, cabin crew, cleaners, caterers, check-in staff, baggage handlers, engineers, firemen, police, security guards. Another three hundred thousand or more people are employed by myriad suppliers - all those van drivers and sandwich makers.

Airports are also the world's largest employer of dogs."
