In reply to Dave. Those both sound like good spots!

I’ve found some pretty nice places outside the airport as well; I had a long wait at IAD (Dulles), waiting for my wife to come. I walked a bit to an employee parking lot with lots of good trees around, and spend the better part of the wait there (it rained on my parade, and I don’t carry a tarp while traveling).

By the way, the place I found in O’Hare was at gate B18, which had two metal columns right by the windows, and crossed no seats. It was a nice 45 mins…

In reply to Dave. I always vary as well. I just need a good place to hang where it’s not in the way.

I have pictures of me in a Yukon Outfitters double in O’Hare too – it didn’t last long until someone called the authorities on me. However, I always bring it with me on trips, ever since I got overnighted in MSP, of all places. I’l know to go down to F2 to find the poles now…

I could see this if you were stuck overnight due to a flight cancellation.
He’s asking for trouble by not having his straps choked around the columns though.
