OAK – A reader writes: “Nowhere whatsoever, and the airport staff was not particularly helpful. The regular bathrooms have oversized stalls so they didn’t have a dedicated family bathroom. If I had been there during business hours, and I was desperate, I could have rented a private office cubicle at a place called “Laptop Lane” for about $15 for 15 minutes. Instead, I used the time to buy fresh batteries and pumped on the plane in my seat, covering up as best I could with a blanket. (Fortunately, the ambient noise on the plane was so loud that I couldn’t even hear the pump myself.)”

July 5, 2007DFW – A reader writes: “Family restroom in Terminal D (with outlet and counter, but nowhere to sit) was recommended by the extremely helpful and sympathetic volunteer staff as the best place to pump. This one was much more deluxe, with a marble-type counter and better air circulation. I felt badly about tying up the room for half an hour, but the volunteer staff said not to worry.”

July 5, 2007PHL - A reader writes: “Family restroom (with outlet and a counter, but nowhere to sit) was the only place to pump. It was stuffy but adequate. I felt badly about tying up the room for half an hour, but the airport staff was firm that this was the only place, and pointed out that there was more than one family restroom in the airport.”
