Doc once suggested "earwalking" or "oarwalking," for "Electricity Access Reconnaisance walking" or "Outlet Access Reconnaisance walking."

Some ampire friendly airports:
Portland, Oregon (PDX): Free worktables with power (in concourse C) and free wifi.
Albuquerque, New Mexico (ABQ): Laptop tables with power strips and free wifi.
