Booklink and Cafe

Booklink offers lots of books and games to pass the time, and plenty of souvenirs, snacks and miscellaneous too. It’s worth checking out if you have a long layover and are looking for a diversion.

This shop has not only books and snacky foods for us book readers but also has a ton of travel friendly size items. They have games, books, coloring pencils, even watercolor paints. They have stuffed animals, dolls. Anything that you need to keep you busy. If you have a layover or miss your flight. They have feminine hygiene supplies, and my FAVORITE miniature Nyquil single doses in the liquid form so that you can sleep on your flight.nnPrices are consistent with other airport stores, a bit overpriced but when you need something that's so convenient. They have self-checkout which is always convenient and they do tap pay.

When I woke up this am there was a message from American Airlines saying my flight was several hours delayed. – After 3 more changes & confirmations, I ended up missing the flight… long story, long day & the slowest Uber driver ever known – THEN landed an hour late because Trump came to Miami… My final flight had been booked again for 5 hours later. Ummm, so yeah, wasted time at Miami Airport today 🫣…nnSuper long story short, I actually enjoyed this little place. (And look, friends! 🤪). Cute place to shop & pick up snacks – making lemonade after being up 24 hours… 👍

I was at MIA Airport due to delays and cancellations in the Northeast and stopped by BookLink to buy a book to help pass the time. About an hour later, I realized the book I purchased was actually the second book in a series. I hadn’t opened or read it yet, as I had stopped to grab lunch first.nnI went back to the bookstore hoping to exchange it for another book, but the attendant told me they do not allow returns or exchanges on books or magazines. While I understand concerns around magazines being quickly read or items being damaged, this book was brand new, unopened, and purchased less than an hour earlier.nnIt seems unreasonable and inflexible not to allow an exchange in this situation, especially in an airport setting where travelers are dealing with delays and limited options. A little flexibility and customer service would have gone a long way.

Almost everyday I go to have my coffee an arepa with cheese. Dijon and all staff have a great customer service either me and everybody, I wish the establishment should open earlier, there i employees and passengers very early looking for coffee and something g to eat.
