The World's Best Airport, Hoskins on West New Britian, PNG


I have a new favorite airport, Hoskins in West New Britian, PNG. As our prop landed the volcanic mountains in the back ground was the first sign. The small wooden building was a hive of activity, da plane has arrived. The people waved as we walked a few feet to the baggage claim, a wooden table under an arbor, I actually could follow my bag’s trail from cargo hold to said table. That was it done and gone.
Leaving today was airport heaven, toss over my bag and out to the gardens outside. When it was time to board I followed some locals on a short cut through a barbwire fence after a quick stomp on my cig butt. No pushing, no snarls just smiles. It has been years since I enjoyed an airport, this one I loved!
