Great pics there, what a shame that the rampant commercialism by MAG and everything else that has changed in the travel world has turned a great airport into an absolute soulless dump that just has to be endured rather than enjoyed at the start and end of every trip/holiday cry

Did their used to be a slope leading to duty free? As you walked down the slope there was a car to the left?
I’m 30 so this would be when I was ~5.
