Anything to do in Fiumicino airport?

We've got a couple of hours to kill in the airport waiting for our flight out. Is there anything halfway interesting to do while we're waiting? If not, are there certain areas that are nicer than others to rest for a while?<BR>Thanks for any tips.

I was there a couple of weeks ago. Very boring airport, not much to do. Very few shops.

I don't recall Fiumicino being a particulary attractive or interesting airport.<BR><BR>Now Barcelona's El Prat...THERE'S a gorgeous airport! A real feast for the eyes (and, if so inclined, a feast for the wallet as well.

Tom, the others advice is correct. Pretty boring. However, in one of the terminals there is a wine bar where you can sample (for a price) the regional wines. I forgot what terminal but the airport isn't that big. It is probably one of my least favorite airports. Milan isn't much better, though.

I figured that if there was anything fun to do there, people here would know it! Looks like will just relax, read and people watch. Thanks, SC, for the tip on the wine bar.
