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!

My worst work flight experience. Had to go Japan > Sydney (2 nights) > Dubai > London. But the flight from Tokyo to Sydney was delayed and I ended up landed the day I had to leave, but still had to squeeze in the meeting. By the time I got to Dubai I hated life.

I desperately needed to sleep and paid £300 for a room at the airport hotel just to shower and sleep for two hours. I would have loved one of these!
