Plenty of Sydneysiders enjoy chowing down on a Big Mac down under, but did you know that the city's main airport is also home to what could be the coolest airport McDonald's ? The international terminal of Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD), which is the current sole international gateway for the bustling city, has golden arches with a birds-eye view of the runway, and a conveyor belt delivers its food. I'm Mc Lovin it The author of McAtlas , Gary He, has traveled the world, documenting unique offerings and locations for one of the world's most popular fast-food chains. Sydney's International Airport took the grand prize for what he deemed the 'Coolest Airport McDonalds'.
Let's understand why. According to He, customers place their orders as usual at the counter from the main departure lounge, however, the kitchen and prep staff are actually located in the galley upstairs.
