— Norm Crabtree, former aviation director for the state of Ohio. This little quotation was told to me by a wonderful ERAU professor from Ohio. I liked it a lot and included in my early aviation quotation lists, this website and the original book. It became the opening quote of the wonderful movie One Six Right. How cool is that!
The AirWayte opened in early 1960. Newspaper stories back then described car rentals at denver international airport it as a Pullman-like structure. A Pullman was a sleeping compartment on a train, so that description hinted at the pea-in-a- pod-like experience of staying at the AirWayte.
The hostelry looked a bit like a futuristic car rentals at denver international airport trailer car rentals at denver international airport home raised off the ground by a central, stilt-like car rentals at denver international airport lobby. (Imagine a squat letter T.) There were two AirWayte units at National, about 50 yards from the terminal and right near the parking lot. Each was 75 feet long and 20 feet wide, and each contained 18 rooms. Room rates were .75 for the first hour and 75 cents for each additional hour; rates were higher at night.
So what did you get for your buck seventy-five? A 7-by-61/2-foot carpeted room with bed, desk, telephone, toilet car rentals at denver international airport and shower. The AirWayte was open round-the-clock, and a call system notified occupants of flight departures.
It was very convenient, said Paul Sonnabend, car rentals at denver international airport chairman of the executive committee at Sonesta Hotels , who in the 1960s was president of Hotel Corp. of America, the company that built the AirWayte. The people who used them, I think, car rentals at denver international airport found them convenient. They were small. It was functional. It wasn t meant for somebody to spend two or three or four days there.
Paul said his company had great plans for the AirWayte concept, car rentals at denver international airport hoping to open them across the country. A survey at the time revealed that nearly one-third of passengers at major U.S. airports were subject to delays of more than an hour. This was a market.
In the end, only National Airport got the AirWayte. The problem, Paul said, was dealing with airport bureaucracy. It was a very difficult job to get approval to put them in. It became such a nuisance that we began to realize that it wasn t worth the effort.
