Salt Lake City International Airport is eighth best in the nation for tech travelers, according to a new PC World ranking.
The magazine looked at the nation’s 40 largest airports to identify those that do the best job of keeping travelers "plugged in at the gate and in the air." It looked at the average number of electrical outlets and USB ports per gate, the number of charging stations and workstations, and Wi-Fi and cellular service speeds.
