Was there in Jan and it didn't have a CF at that point, at least not airside.

Which airport is this?
Since Heathrow got the 70s in, they've downgraded arcades quite a bit.
I have heard the one upstairs in T3 has gone for a shop now. No more £5 Hyper Viper, couple of ready extremes and several over 18s.
Still the same things downstairs, but I wonder how long they will last. Not been for ages, I would have gone about a month ago, but this was setback due to a delayed flight that ended up coming in at midnight! No arcades open.
They had a Skillball Bingo outside switched on, so I wondered, should I chance a game? Yeah, I'm probably up for it...At this time I had been drinking in the pub beforehand before grabbing a lift to the airport, so I wasn't in the best state.
Anyway, tried putting £1 in, missed the slot, the pound rolled down the side of the machine and I couldn't get it. The big man in the sky must have been telling me something!
Thou shalt not drink before gambling...

Could be on about Gatwick, I flew to Bulgaria from there in Jan and they had a Cabin Fever, with about 5% of the lamps working properly, plus some other bits.

Could be, though I never thought they had a downstairs fruit area as well. Bulbs are inexcusable in Gatwick!

If you go into the Aviation Experience in BHX there's quite a few in there... mostly £5s, I didn't bother to look mind, I was just there to watch planes take off.

In airside though was that DOND skill game where you have to say if a box number is there or not, and after getting so many points you get an "offer" Wasn't much cop.

I'd wager all airsides are going though as they won't get much, if any, pro play. I wonder what landside machines are like, there's so many cameras now anyone coming in to an airport on a regular basis who doesn't work there, isn't a passenger, or a pilot/flight attendant, will look suss.
