Broadcast game that's enjoyed by those about to fly? (3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

air bridge

'that's enjoyed by those about to fly?' is the definition.
(an air bridge is used to board a plane)

'broadcast game' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' becomes 'air' (to air on TV).
'game' becomes 'bridge' (card game).
'air'+'bridge'='AIR-BRIDGE'

(Other definitions for air bridge that I've seen before include "Sky link" , "way off plane" , "Walkway put up against plane's door" , "Transport link needing flying visit" , "Link over water" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
