Passport Control -- Concourse D
Gojannesstad-St. Olaf Airport
Hans Baumgartner lived a boring life. It was a mundane job, reading people’s passports every day. Every time an international flight landed, a swell of people entered the hall, only to thin out before the next plane arrived.
The passport control hall was grey -- very grey, with low drop ceilings. The carpets were a pattern that looked like a laser tag arena from 1995. The fluorescent lights didn’t help either. At least to Hans, it didn’t adequately fulfill the expectations of grandeur one associated with their first moments in one of the more richer countries of the world. Good thing they’d be renovating this concourse later this year.
The usual people walked by, business travelers and the like, but there was also the odd case of a fraudster or a drug trafficker. They were just escorted into the back room with Dvit, the supervisor, and Hans would never see them again.
Then a woman with pink hair walked into his queue.
“Raispas og Ankomstkort, Såtte. Passport and Arrival Card, Please”
