Thankfully I don't do regular travel now - but can feel your 'pain' at all the kerfuffle that goes into air travel. The homogenising of everything seems to be slowly creeping along - but there are too many bloody battles around - the dividing line will still be there - very sadly.

Some things would blend - look at how Japan has adopted a lot of Western things. But it still looks like Japan.<br />Glad you won't be traveling much soon.Alex J.
