First, you will need to know where you will sleep. There are web sites and resources everywhere – you can check the website Sleep at airportsAnd Sarah Matina, the former employee of the company at Southwest and Jetblue, said the “Holy Just” to find the darkest spot at the airport. (Other experts also recommended this site.) Evidence has been devoted to “every major airport in the world.” (I have reviewed the O’Hare guide in Chicago, and you can emphasize that the best sleeping sites that you are doing are actually the best actual sleep sites of my experience that spends long hours waiting for a delay trip.)

You can also try the sublardit for the city or the airport in which it will be. If your portal is occupied, you can select other gates at the same station. Look for the cold spot in the corner – you may even find a chair or seat without supporting the arms. Psychologist Lea Kaylor recommends choosing a safe, low -moving area, and says that the corners near the airport chapel or family halls may be quieter stains than others. Ideally, you want to choose a place that contains some employees, such as security patrols or kiosks, but not a place busy with people you cannot sleep.

Many experts whom you consulted recommended to check the airport halls if you are able to do so, since the seats are more comfortable and the area is more quieter in general. They pointed out that some credit cards give you access to various airport halls, or consider purchasing a pass for long stopping operations. You may even be able to disable the shower in the airport lounge (or a drink to help you get soft, though Andrew E Colbs, founder National Sleeping CenterIt is recommended to avoid alcohol because it prevents the remnant and works as a diuretic). Some airports have a nap or nap rooms, for a fee, but they provide you with a place to sleep with your bags that are not compatible with strangers from the other side of the party.
