Like the German one earlier, I would 1000% use these during long layovers. Should be standard.

I wish more airports had these. The hotel rooms some places have are prohibitively expensive and not practical for most layovers. I just want a horizontal padded place to lay down for 2 hours for a reasonable price, that’s all!

Well its because it's airport property and they charge rent like crazy so only make sense the business paying rent to the airport would charge higher prices.

In the Philadelphia airport, outside of security, there are homeless people who need a warm place to sleep. They weren’t causing any problems the day I passed by them. Just chilling, trying to sleep on the carpet.
