Singapore is a country that is far advanced. When we were on a tour there.. we were surprised to see a wakalator at the airport. One did not have to walk but just use this device. The distance to the aircraft was pretty long and so most commuters used this device we, included. Would you have preferred walking or use this device?

I actually don't mind walking inside that big airport. I didn't feel tired when I did walk there when I had the chance to go there one time. But I still did you that walkator though you can still do walk . But I just want to experience it. But yes, singapore is indeed advanced. How I wished back then that my country could at least be half as advanced as them.

@allknowing I think that walkator would be a lot of help but for me, I wished I just walked. It is not that enjoyable to ride on that. It does not feel exciting. I love to walk.

@hotsummer Walking surely creates a natural environment with people around you.

If one has luggage to tug along this comes in handy

We always use them in airports. They are very common. We walk on them if in a hurry to get to a gate or baggage claim.

I had visited Singapore years ago and also my foreign trips elsewhere were also years ago. I had only seen this at Singapore at that time.
