On the morning of September 11, 2001, as the Twin Towers collapsed, 38 jet planes were re-routed to a tiny airport in Gander, Newfoundland. More than 7,000 passengers were stuck in a town of 13,000 for up to five days, with only 500 hotel rooms available in the vicinity.pic.twitter.com/ljLBlcK8ZQ
The residents of Gander and nearby communities welcomed the “plane people,” as they were called, with open arms. Volunteers made lunches, elementary schools were turned into dormitories, and the hockey rink became a walk-in refrigerator.pic.twitter.com/bb9NRKw7GB
Before Gander International Airport opened in 1938, Newfoundland’s fields were the jumping off points for early transatlantic pilots like Amelia Earhart and Charles Lindbergh. It was the most eastern point in North America, and a logical place to begin a transatlantic flight.pic.twitter.com/HQFT48xojU
In 1959, the Queen of England opened a sleek, modernist International Departures Lounge at the Gander airport. The avant-garde lounge reflected the glamour of mid-century air travel and featured furniture by famous designers such as Charles and Ray Eames and Robin Bush.pic.twitter.com/4PPpIeOq0h
Plans to build a smaller terminal, unveiled in 2015, put the lounge at risk. It’s considered the most important modernist room in Canada, and there’s a groundswell of support to save it. For now, the airport authority indicated it isn’t going anywhere.https://trib.al/cj4sKrd
I actually attended an event in Dublin Ireland 
in May where this whole event was discussed in fascinating detail.
