FULL STORY: An airport in New Zealand is in the news for the new HUGGING policy they just adopted? If you’re dropping someone at the airport, farewell hugs are now limited to three minutes max.
They put up a sign that says, “Max hug time three minutes. For fonder farewells, please use the car park.” (Here’s a photo. The airport is in Dunedin on New Zealand’s South Island.)
They’re doing it to help with traffic around the airport and limit how long people hang out in the drop-off lane. But the internet is divided on whether it’s a good policy or not.
One person called a time limit on hugs “inhumane.” But another said the drop-off lane at their kid’s school needs this policy.
The best comment came from an American who said, “You get three minutes to hug?? In America, they don’t even want you to stop. Just come to a slow roll and push your passenger out.”
