Miami International Airport
Flight time to Miami from Chicago is about three hours. As aircraft approaches to the Miami International
Airport, we saw the board Atlantic Ocean spread over the rich granary field.
In arriving in Miami airport, we felt the impression mixed with warmness and vulgarity, just visiting a country
side. We could find any no-smoking signs in the airport buildings. This is a rather common phenomenon in
the international airport facilities in the United States. The fact is well accepted from oversea travellers and
domestic residents. However, to make sure it, there was a frequent announcement that 'All terminals are
smokefree. Smoking is allowed in designated places only'. All designated smoking places are located outside
of the airport building, except a smoking area in the courtyard. It is unique that the warning sign board for
lung cancer using an X-ray film was on the wall of the airport terminal building.

マイアミ国際空港到着 シカゴからマイアミまでへの飛行時間は約3時間である。豊かな穀倉地帯を下に見て
マイアミ近くに近づくと大きな大西洋が広がって来る。
マイアミに着いて見て、田舎の空港のような暖かみと、やぼったさとが同居するとの印象を受けた。空港内には禁煙
標識は一切ない。米国内の国際空港によくあることで、閉鎖空間内での喫煙禁止は、海外からの旅行者を含め、もう
疑う余地のない万人が受け入れている既成事実である。それでも空港では「All terminals are smoke-ree. Smoking
is allowed in designated places only」 と頻繁にアナウンスを繰り返していた。空港中庭(屋外)に1ヶ所の喫煙所を
見つけたが、他の指定された喫煙所は空港出入口より離れた屋外にある。通路の目立つ場所には肺のレントゲン写真を
掲げ乗客の注意を喚起していた。
