The story I saw said it takes a few days for the virus to start being physically active so they would have a chance to get into airports and expose hundreds of people as they are changing planes.

To put it crudely, Ebola basically spreads by splash damage (i.e., direct contact with infected body fluids).

An ambulatory Ebola patient in an airport really isn’t a large scale threat (no airborne transmission).
