I find the PA systems to be an assault on my ears and I often wear ear plugs in airports and on planes. I'd prefer silent airports. I suppose that'd be great for the deaf but not so good for the blind.
- kinkrtyavimoodh 9y agoIt just won't matter for the deaf, right?
- lazyasciiart 9y agoIt will matter to the deaf in a good way, because the airport will be set up to ensure that all information is communicated without using audio.
- vermontdevil 9y agoExactly this. I've had to scramble and barely make to another gate when they announced a change without making any visual updates. I only caught on when I noticed everyone being gone. (I was reading a book at that time). I've had friends who missed flights because of these last minute changes. Even subscribing to text alerts is a hit or miss.
