Gate 27B Signs

This sign turns up in every sketch with an airport setting.

Unless of course they don't need to build a set at all because they actually managed to secure Dublin airport as a filming location: check out the office version of the Ryanair Song and also the vine Dublin Airport Emotional Arrival, filmed on the same day. Dublin Airport is definitely a FAHn by the way, so if you like airport-related humour, why not subscribe to their Twitter account!

Let's take a look at those sign appearances:

(2017)"How to make the office look like an Airport" - Behind the Scenes shot of the set FAH built for the Vodafone ad sketch (posted to Instagram on 26 Jan 2017)A still from Emigration Police (premiered on 5 Sep 2019)A sneak peek at the airport set in the new office for the new sketch, from the FAH Instagram stories (16 Nov 2020)

You may ask: did the lads to any research into airport interior design for these sets? Well, they've visited airports quite a few times during touring, so they've had plenty of time to soak up the environment and take some notes. Here are some Airport Larks from the Twitter & Instagram Tour FAHrchives:

Will any of these observances feature in an Airport Sketch in future? Personally, I'd LOVE to see Hog lugging around a case bigger than himself! Or how about a follow up on Holidays with your Parents (the Flanagans) or The Family Holiday?
