welcome everyone Adam the woo here as
0:02
the recording of this it is Sunday July
0:05
21st 2024 I have my bags all packed up
0:10
ready to roll ready to be carried on my
0:14
back the form of a pack and I am heading
0:18
International today for the first
0:20
time in a decade give or take I am
0:24
heading to
0:25
Toronto out of Pittsburgh International
0:28
Airport have a layover in Detroit and
0:30
then from
0:31
Detroit to Toronto now I did contemplate
0:35
with some of the issues of flying the
0:36
last few days when I had it issue
0:38
getting up here the global shutdown and
0:40
all that I looked into renting a car and
0:43
there were none as of yesterday when I
0:45
looked to just drive from here to
0:47
Toronto crossing the border that way
0:50
there was no one-way direct rental car
0:52
so sticking with my original plan and
0:55
flying up I am going Delta could not
0:58
find a Delta flight that went went
1:01
direct one way you had to do that little
1:03
connecting flight layover so that's what
1:05
I'm going to do get to the airport hour
1:08
flight to Detroit and then another hour
1:10
flight Detroit to Toronto also was not
1:13
able to mobile check in on my Delta app
1:17
I have to go up to an associate or a
1:21
kiosk to do that maybe it's because I
1:23
just R my passport not sure but I
1:25
couldn't check in till I get there no
1:29
matter what happens today I'm inviting
1:31
you to join me shall you just waiting on
1:34
the Uber to get
1:35
here also this is international and I'm
1:39
not
1:41
really it it it's kind of a gray area
1:44
when it comes to the international
1:45
excitement I mean I'm excited to go to
1:47
Toronto but I'm more excited next year
1:49
to go
1:51
overseas I feel like that's when I I
1:54
feel like I'm really going to be doing
1:55
International I've been I've been to
1:57
Canada before but it's again it's been
1:59
like 10 years I
2:00
there goes there there's a plane right
2:02
there not too far from the airport here
2:06
few miles or
2:17
more I have made it the Uber is now
2:17
departing been dropped off really nice
2:20
guy Robert was his
2:30
name I have to go up to the D a Delta
2:30
agent figure out exactly why I could not
2:33
check in
2:40
online I mean look at the seating in
2:40
here look at the chairs so retro look at
2:43
this thing I missed this when I was here
2:45
when I arrived here the other day look
2:48
at this almost looks like a
2:50
Transformer oh you know what this is
2:51
like looks like oh it's like a bridge oh
2:54
it's a big bridge thing it's called the
2:57
arch it's made up of the same materials
3:00
that the bridges are made out
3:02
of wood metal and
3:05
paint it also massive lines the line
3:10
stretches all the way underneath that
3:12
way on the bottom level goes I'll show a
3:15
little closer when I get back down there
3:17
but mostly because of you know the
3:20
issues with the Airlines and it stuff
3:23
over the last few days going to be a i
3:25
glad I got here a little bit early all
3:27
right this is the line for the delta
3:30
agents right here a little lengthy all
3:33
right that was pretty quick and easy
3:35
they said she said it's going to update
3:37
it on the app now the line over there I
3:38
didn't have to wait on that I got in the
3:40
sky priority line which is this little
3:42
no line right there and the benefits of
3:45
that is because I signed up for the MX
3:47
and I am a Delta card member and I've
3:49
flown enough to get the sky priority
3:51
status and I just got in that secondary
3:55
line and went to a different associate
3:56
and I have paper boarding passes and the
3:58
app is going to be up updated also I
4:01
have not signed up for Global Entry or
4:02
TSA pre-check yet I know I'm getting on
4:04
it I'm getting on it however there is a
4:06
preferred first class line right here
4:08
that's only like I don't know eight
4:09
people deep so all right the funny thing
4:11
is chose the wrong line anyway because
4:13
there's only one associate bringing up
4:15
people in that line where the longer
4:17
line had three or four people that they
4:19
would fundle into so actually waited
4:21
longer in the priority line and waiting
4:23
for the transportation device looks like
4:25
Pittsburgh International Airport was
4:27
dedicated October 1st of 199 2 it's
4:30
funny the Uber driver was like you know
4:32
I could probably just drive you to
4:34
Toronto in the same amount of time as
4:36
you're going to take the plane and the
4:38
connecting flight in The Layover said I
4:53
know sum
4:53
everywhere there Che at this
4:57
bookstore kind of neat to get this anth
4:59
board Book World Traveler
5:01
book if I'll get it today but I should
5:04
probably get it at some point like
5:06
Anthony Bourdain and uh going to be
5:08
doing a lot of world trapping so you
5:09
probably learn a thing or two some of
5:12
his little escapades all right there's a
5:15
Starbucks up here on this level so I'm
5:18
going to do a little cheers a little
5:19
piping hot caffeinated cheers and a
5:23
goodbye to Pittsburgh yeah went with
5:25
went with a little Starbucks a little
5:26
stage here so reminds me of like the old
5:28
Mall stages which evidently part of this
5:31
airport was kind of created back before
5:33
you didn't have to go through a lot of
5:34
security checkpoints as a mall yeah
5:36
looks like a mall food coure doesn't
5:38
it I was looked on the app and it
5:42
doesn't appear as if there is a Delta
5:45
Sky Club Lounge here it's a little weird
5:47
it's like an
5:49
inclined ramp look at this it's like
5:52
look how high up off the ground it is in
5:54
comparison to what you walk next to
5:56
usually they walk you want go parallel
5:59
to where they
6:06
are this is like elevated like 2 or 3
6:06
feet got to abide by these rules Walkers
6:09
keep to the
6:11
left Walkers to the left and I've never
6:14
heard the word standy used in this form
6:18
I know like if you're just standing keep
6:20
to the right but now I'm going to refer
6:22
to anyone that's standing on a walkway a
6:25
stande says here that they are building
6:27
a smarter airport you got a little
6:31
mirror here is Mary Lou Williams next to
6:39
Warhol the idea of waiting for something
6:39
makes it more exciting that is true they
6:42
say uh there's a there's a catchphrase
6:44
with that all right that is good
6:46
5319 d80 is on time a little history
6:51
here this quote airport was initially an
6:53
air strip serving the military in back
6:56
in World War II the runways 1942 46
7:00
shown here the airport opened with great
7:03
Fanfare on May 31st of 1952 there is a
7:05
photo of the grand opening right over
7:08
here with no viable reuse the old
7:11
section was demolished and made way for
7:14
redeveloping service program back in
7:17
1999 there's even a Chick-fil-A in here
7:19
of course as I'm filming this it is a
7:22
Sunday Chick-fil-A is always closed on
7:23
Sundays so that the associates can spend
7:26
time with their family and go to church
7:29
it's Pittsburg merchandise it's
7:32
Pittsburgh merchandise 2 for $30 $17.99
7:35
each or 2 for30 look at this is a little
7:38
uh construction toy right there you got
7:41
all the different different Delta
7:43
flights they also have other airlines
7:44
too like American and Etc take a look at
7:48
this this is a diecast metal it has the
7:50
little Delta truck so there looks like
7:53
uh I don't know it's like made out of
7:55
like almost like it's made out of wood
7:58
like little wooden
8:00
sticks top of the the section up here
8:05
stressfree traffic this way you can
8:08
learn
8:09
about stress free traffic with this
8:12
little display talking about how a smart
8:14
City moves oh what the heck is
8:18
this robot repair what in
8:22
the Frey's robot

9:12
vintage

9:18
there is a robot repair area they are on
9:22
they are
9:23
closed away on vacation they'll be back
9:26
soon where does a robot repair person go

9:36
violently disconnect power supply before
9:39
entering we care for the world's robots
9:42

9:52
robot in a chair he does not look happy
9:55
though he's got a little sad face
10:00
it's okay robot it's okay I noticed some
10:03
IT issues recently maybe that's what
10:04
you're concerned about a classic uh
10:09
camera there as well and over on the
10:12
wall look at those things look at those
10:20
robots got all the different times up on
10:20
the across the world it says it's all
10:23
it's uh 7 minutes to 6 here in
10:25
Pittsburgh that is not correct that
10:27
clock is not working nor are the other
10:30
ones none of the clocks on the wall are
10:32
working so that might be part of the the
10:35
it issue there's a big hand look at that
10:37
big robot hand right there that's
10:38
gargantuan there's an oil can I remember

10:44
remember the oil can that the Tin Man
10:46
used from The Wizard of
10:48
Oz the Tin Man wasn't I guess you
10:50
wouldn't classify him as a
10:53
robot he's like grandfathered into robot
10:57
status though I'm sure like the robots
10:59
love there's Mr Rogers right
11:02

11:04

26:37
experience the same thing in Burbank
26:39
California I love that little airport
26:41
and this I don't think is as small as
26:47
Burbank that was a turbulent turbulent
26:47
ride in fact not only there was no
26:50
service but even the flight ATT tenets
26:53
never left their seats either it was
26:55
only like an hour flight a little less
26:56
than an hour all right all right here's
26:59
the machine I got to use welcome to
27:01
Canada please select language I'm going
27:03
to do English right there some sort of
27:05
privacy notice statement I'm going to
27:07
hit yes please scan my travel Document
27:10
right here on this oh there's a whole
27:12
other setup over here expected wait time
27:15
to get through 10 minutes from this
27:18
point okay actually that's just more of
27:20
the same thing I just did except this is
27:23
the more the bigger area so I bypass all
27:26
that cuz I've already done that at the
27:27
upper and is that it an agent took the
27:31
thing little check mark on it and now
27:34
I'm walking this way I think I'm I think
27:36
I'm maybe officially in I don't know all
27:38
right there's a lot of bags waiting
27:39
there I didn't have any check on bags so
27:41
here is the currency exchange I'm going
27:43
to get some loonies and some tunies all
27:45
right so that little receipt thing the
27:48
Declaration paperwork they take that one
27:50
other checkpoint on the way out so don't
27:52
toss that keep that because they're
27:54
going to take that you're not going to
27:55
take that with you as a souvenir I am a
27:58
officially
27:59
in Canada oh my goodness they have
28:03
freaking payones here that's where you
28:05
find payones find them in Canada you got
28:08
to be aware of your
28:10
surroundings stay on business stay
28:12
off be aware of your surroundings to
28:15
stay safe on busy curves and
28:18
roadways so I actually have a cell phone

28:31
