gatehunt
/ˈɡeɪtˌhʌnt/nounVerified NewAlso in: Gatejagd (Deutsch) · puertacaza (Español) · porte-chasse (Français)
The search for the departure gate, conducted on foot, past three cafés and one panic.
The gatehunt begins at "boarding" and ends at a gate number that changed twice. Its route is learned from screens and confirmed by running. The hunt's finish is a queue already boarding, entered at a speed that converts embarrassment into a seat, which is the traveler's reward.
Etym. — gate + hunt — the terminal quest of every flight.
