U.S. News & World Report

I had to grab me some news for the road because my flight was delayed. NY Times and varying newspapers, magazines, books, juices and other little nick nacks for your flight, a bit pricey, but readily available.
I had delayed boarding for my XL Airways flight from San Francisco SFO — CDG Paris and had to wonder around, thus stomping varietal Where Traveler News + Gift and its smaller rival U.S. News & World Report.
Both serve similar needs, the latter appeals to me more because of the name. Cheers!

Sometimes I like to switch up my flow. While I often hit Where Traveler for preflight sundries, especially when traveling out of the latter A-​gates, US News & World Report holds up when I’m cruising out of A2 and the earlier gates. They don’t have my desired Smart Water, but what did I find here? CORE water with magnesium! Good for that hydration (and lubrication). There is also a nifty little selection of Suja juices, Odwallas and various healthier juice style bevvies. Also pistachios. Who doesn’t love pistachios?
Sure, they try to push gum and candy if you’re just buying drinks, or drinks if you’re just buying nuts and gum, they’re doing that everywhere nowadays. I mean, who doesn’t need a good beverage pairing with their nuts n gum?
Anyway, it’s an airport sundries store with airport prices. It’s what I expect out of SFO.
