The waiting area at Zanzibar Airport.

The printer broke down at check-in. So they wrote out the boarding pass by hand. No date, no surname, no barcodes.

There's no air conditioning in the main waiting area (none at all). There is a lounge, but even there it's pretty hot (though much better).

No departure board. They just announce boarding over the microphone. About as clear as announcements at Russian train stations.

The flight was delayed over an hour. No announcements about it, nobody knows why or when we're leaving. Well, your plane hasn't arrived yet, you'll fly out eventually, hakuna matata.

I've never seen such a madhouse before.
