Istanbul, Turkey - En route to Zagreb, Croatia to embark on a three-week road trip across the country, I had an 8-hour layover at the Istanbul Airport (IGA).
I arrived at midnight and didn't leave Istanbul until 8am the next morning, so I wanted to get some sleep in the airport. I heard about the IGA Sleepods, so I made it my mission to get some sleep.
Turns out, it was harder than I expected to reserve one of the IGA Sleepods so I give a full IGA Lounge tour while I pass the time.
The Istanbul Airport layover experience is wild because it is a massive hub with a ton of shops, facilities and food venues.
I actually chose my flight based on the Istanbul Airport layover because of how interesting this city and airport are.
I hope you enjoyed this quick Istanbul Airport layover IGA Sleepod "review" ❤️ If so, please hit that "👍" button, and leave a comment!
Otherwise, see ya next week from Croatia!!

That’s how international airport should be. Open 24 hours and have sleep pods, and places to rest. That’s what the United States airports are lacking, making the airport experience more pleasurable
So true phila airport don't even have anything open after 10-11pm i had a 1am flight that turn into leaven after 230am got there at 1130 to be there n get thu check thu had wait over 2hrs was so hungry n not even vendings to get a drink or anything to even get water sucks they should have Lil places still open for ppl who r flying after 11pm to still be able to eat or drink incase flights r delayed
The US lacks in a lot if we are honest
it seems American air travel goes out of their way to make it as unpleasant as possible. like jail "if you don't like it, bond out"
Airports don’t close
I just slept on big cushions seats in that airport.. I spent my longest layover there 17 hours in Istanbul turkey. Big airport but think I got to see most of it... Hate there limited free wifi..
Then flew over black sea and two days later Russia invaded Ukraine.. *was curious about all ships in black sea, usually not that many but understand now..
I had an 18 hour layover in Atlanta GA after missing a connecting flight due to weather. Wonderful people working there. All food places were closed or closing for the night. A food manager made me a to-go bag for later and didn't charge me. I had to sleep laying over several seats. Very nice security people brought me a small pillow and blanket, and told me they would watch over me while i was sleeping.
Sounds like awesome experience 🙂
How wonderful!
That sounds like a pretty good experience, I appreciate you sharing it with us.
@AntiqueJeans, good heavens, 18 hours! I'm glad you had a pleasant experience! And I thought a 4-hour layover there was nearly unbearable! It was a lot of sitting, getting up and sitting and getting up. Then just minutes before our flight was to board I noticed the monitors "We're headed for TX!!" Our gate was changed so it was down the escalators, on the tram and up the escalator and down to the other end of the airport! Those trams are no joke btw, anyone who hasn't been on one, do your best to find something to hold onto amidst the crowd or you'll go tumbling when it stops!😄The crowds of people are sometimes overwhelming in ATL!
This happened at Hartsfield? I'm shocked. Been there a few times. Last time an outside check in agent was so rude. I never had to stay over night though
I've always never understood why airports didn't have hotel rooms or sleep cubes like that. It would make it so much easier when stuck
Always? Or never?
I wouldn't be do sleep cubes to tight just watching the video make go nope.
That is so true!
Ikr
Orlando international airport has a hotel inside
This was highly enjoyable to watch. I respect anyone who can walk through a crowded public place and talk confidently to the camera, makes it interesting for us to watch. Your editing is snappy, and I really felt like I was there experiencing this. I never could’ve imagined Istanbul airport to be so amazing. Thanks for all the effort in putting this together.
Definitely interesting 😀
I have stayed in the capsule hotel at Narita Airport in Japan. Much more full service and all inclusive. It was about $30 USD and well worth it. When confronted with a long layover, some sleep and a shower is worth their weight in gold (or in your case Baklava). Thank you for this!
Narita airport is probably my favorite airport in the world so far. I also did the capsule and had a lot of fun at the gotchapon station. 😆. Fun airport.
Feels like a Comfortable coffin🤣.
I've tried the one in Transylvania. The only problem is that you're not allowed to wake up during the day time.
@@nandy1256 😂😂😂😂 I bet that sucked 😏
@@nandy1256 😂
At first thought these sleep pods might seem a little odd, but they actually are a great idea. Especially for International travel if you have a long layover it avoids the headache and cost of leaving the airport and hauling your luggage, dealing with taxi drivers, possibly needing currency exchange, security concerns to and from a hotel, and the cost of a night at a hotel. It's an excellent solution for those situations.
Considering all of the issues and cancelations that the airports have had recently, you'd think this would be a possible opportunity for a way to help? If the company or airline cancels your flight, or the airport is somewhat responsible for it, if they could offer the stranded people a place to rest, sleep, and not be crammed like sardines in a can. But considering the GREED factor the airlines run with, I doubt that they'll do anything to help the families, or regular people. 🤔 Only the elite, the CEO's, the one's who could afford renting a warehouse for the night will get treated and put up areas away from the "Common folks".
When he started to close the pod, I just feel very claustrophobic. That space is tight.
Me too! 😳
Beats sleeping sitting up I guess.
@@demethiaodom6837id rather have my neck break then feel suffocated in a pod
I can't breathe!!! 😂
He started to close it & I'm going ""Nooooooo!!!!'😮
same here, I was like .... pls don't close it 😢
Came through Istanbul going to/from Cape Town with an evening layover and a full day layover and really enjoyed it. Didn’t know or see the sleep pods but we left the airport and saw the mosques, explored the city, and even had a traditional Turkish breakfast at a nice place on the rooftop halfway between the Hagia Sofia and the sea. Would definitely visit Turkey again
I stayed in Istanbul for a 20-hour layover. I slept in one of those pods exactly. I didn’t catch the showers at all and I toured that huge airport like 3x. Definitely missed that but good to know they have that there. I think all international airports should be like this.
Like 3 times? Like, oh ma gawd.
All airports are international airports aren’t they? Don’t they all except flights from other countries? I’m lost but I don’t fly much I’m a 🐣…
@@ssherrierable nope not all . If it’s not an international airport then you have a layover to connect to any international airport. To make it to your destination normally or it might be one of those airports that fly tiny planes. The smaller planes typically seat 5 to 20 people .
Wasn’t the shower part of the lounge? And not accessible to the entire airport?
@@ssherrierable As a frequent flier, No not all airports are international airports. For example, NYC has two major airports. LaGuardia isn’t international because it doesn’t have immigration facilities, whereas JFK is international with immigration facilities. Also, I was once on a plane where it was running low on gas and they needed to refuel. They initially was going to fly into one nearby airport but they soon realized that it wasn’t international so they had to fly way out of the way to an international airport.
I LOVE this. Most airports seem to do everything to discourage sleeping. My local international airport has the MOST uncomfortable seats and they have arms so you can’t lay across them. HORRIBLE
Dubai is a good airport for sleeping too
DFW International is awful, It is stuck in the 70’s and it always feels so dirty.
That’s cause if you’re sleeping you’re not spending
I don't want to see people laying across chairs.
when you lay across the chairs, you selfishly take up space.
Love the "wake up" angle. Had to wake up, set the phone up, then get close pod, "wake up" & act sleepy. lol
😂 it’s so extra
Yes indeed more of these resting in busy airports, chilling time is always needed when you have long stop overs.
Thanks for showing us around greetings from England 🇬🇧 Beth and Simon ❤️👍🙋
I really enjoyed travelling when I was younger. Back then, I found airplanes and airports both equally exciting, I loved, staying at different hotels and seeing the sights in different cities. Now Im older...not old, but at an age where I find traveling to be more stressful than I can handle. However, I still haven't lost my interest in seeing different interesting places around the world, but now instead of buying a plane ticket somewhere, I relax in the comfort of my own bedroom and watch videos like this, where I can live vicariously through the travel adventures of others.
Same
what about travel is stressful for you?
@@BD-zg7is I don’t have the endurance and stamina like I used to.
Oh I loved travel when I was little all my by myself in a foreign country! But Taiwan airport was the literal worst stayed there for 24+ hours and nothing was open all night. Worse airport I ever been to and by myself at 11 years old, my dad had been there before too and warned me it would be hell lol
@@1rage17 Sounds like a horrible experience, especially for a young child.
Istanbul is 24/7 quite literal. It was so nice eating so much food and such a good quality.
I’ve never in my life seen an airport like that!Amazing!! Thank for sharing 💖
This was chaotic AF! And I enjoyed every minute of it 😂
Just went through this airport back in April. Got to use a shower for about US$19 for about an hour. Best thing when flying over 17 hours and getting a 7 hour layout in the middle of the morning. Made all the difference in my experience of international travel and just felt rejuvenated flying from there to Chicago
Where did you use a shower?
@@elenaholtz247 I don’t remember where at! But it was like a minute hotel built into the airport.
@@chrisfowler623 thanks!
Nothing better than a shower (except perhaps a jacuzzi bath) to relieve stress and feel fresh. ☺️
@@elenaholtz247 entrance to the Yotel Airside hotel, ask for shower. Also there you can find what seems like the only water fountain in the whole airport - fill up your bottle if you don't want to pay $5 for a small plastic bottle of water
Oh, my God. This is amazing. I have no idea how many times I've curled up on the floor in a corner on an airport and tried to sleep. And the fact that if you have an overnight layover the airport closes and you can't even get food.
Whenever I travel internationally I keep getting stuck in Stansted, even though I wasn't even supposed to have a layover in England. It's happened four separate times 😅
We have had to sleep much like that too.. Twice it happened to us 😅😅👍👍
Been there, done that.
I hate Stansted. I think it’s the worst London Airport.
Beautiful airport& the pods in general are great idea but wouldn’t be for me…too small of an area for me, it would feel like I couldn’t breath!!! Maybe a fan inside them would help!!??
I could never sleep in the floor in a public space. Yikes.
I've had a crappt and tiring day, but this video made me laugh hysterically!!😂😂😂
I've been binge watching everything about Istanbul before my trip! Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us
Between these & the “capsule hotels” in Japan it’s starting to look more & more what people had an idea of what the future would look like 20 years ago. The only thing missing is some little service robots going through the aisles
I think robots 🤖 on their way, just wait about 5 more years 🤗
You should name robot and not Rob-Earth. There's power in the tongue. This is why Robert Nesta Marley had to change his name to Bob Marley because the name Bob means strong, builder, rough and also tough.
And flying cars. .. my fav show as a kid was the Jetsons. This kinda reminded me of that minus the flying stuff and robots like u said. 😀
There’s little service robots that deliver food and packages to ppl places in L.A. already
Those are being tested in areas now.
This Istanbul Airport is amazing! I wish every airport had stuff open all night and had those sleep pods. Even just having the sleep pods would make every airport much nicer. I've been to some of the "nicest" and biggest airports in the world, and most of them don't have good places for people to sleep during long layovers.
Just happened upon you and a surprise delight hearing you say " Croatia" #1 in my bucket list... so yes! I'm subscribing, this is my pre-trip preparation.
Loved this--your sense of humor, your thoroughness and entertaining yet informative manner were so helpful--Now I can't wait to see this place! one day myself!
Having reasonable expectations when traveling prevents frustration. Kudos Gareth. You are a shining example.
@@ashtonellis Thanks Bernie. I shall forever feel soooo ashamed.
I've spent 20 hours in that Airport. One of the nicest airports I've ever been in.
I'm so glad they now have this! I used to transit through there a lot and sleep on the floor because no time to go to an off-site hotel and onsite hotel was way expensive.
That's pretty awesome! Thanks for sharing the video and sharing the adventure with us!
Istanbul Airport is huge but so many things to see and to do as well. Great airport roaming!
It's Not Big. It's Enourmos. Gigantic.
really? didn't like it at all
they don't even have free wifi
@@Ipress22 do not connect any public wifi for your own security.
Bad service I will not take a trip to Istanbul 🤬💯
Can I just move into the airport do you need a nurse.
Welcome, we have made a beautiful airport for the whole world.🛫🛬 Love from Istanbul ❤❤
Sounds like the pod people need help in the technique of honesty.
I kept saying wow as the video went from place to place, it really is beautiful as you say! 💜❤💜
Thank you!!! Comfort for people visiting your airports with long layovers, will always remember! I will be visiting next late Spring!! 🥰
@@lisanetgark415 Be sure to try the baklava.🥰🥰
Yes you most certainly have. Beautiful airport
Thanks for the tour , quite impressive 🎉❤😊
I literally had an anxiety attack when you were in the sleep pod. No way I could sleep in one of those. Amazing airport and awesome video.
If you feel anxiety ,leave the pod partly open.
It's a no for me its make OCD go higher 😂
Same with me. I feel like I'm suffocating.
Lol
So classy. Incredible. Quiet. Not crowded. Opulent. Just so different from the airports I've experienced. Better than our malls and hotels here.
This is my favorite airport for people watching! So much amazing diversity in people from EVERYWHERE, so cool!
I wear that scent too. Truly a signature fragrance. Love it!
I'm impressed with how you handled the airport staff when you were misled about the pod availability.You maintained calm yet you communicated your discontent. That is an excellent demonstration of how to handle a mishap/conflict. The pods reminded me of Invasion of the Body Snatchers! 😮
Major Airlines often have "clubs" for their guests. It varies. Could be a large lounge with chairs, food, coffee. They may have small rooms with a bed to use for a price and showers.So many travelers don't know about these services. They don't advertise themselves.
well I'm sure not for coach class...
@@lucky-gh5ox check your credit card perks: priority, lounge Access and you might be surprised what you can do with it
I love how grand and high tech that airport is. Planning a trip to Turkey in October and watching this vid has made me more excited!
Was through IST recently, it is very impressive.
Looks like an excellent experience at a gorgeous airport !
Complaining that the sleeping pods aren't comfortable, tell me where you sleep at LAX or Chicago or JFK ?
I've been several times in Istanbul airport, the sleeping pods must be a quite recent addition...I didn't know one could even shower , I could have used the service.... very informative video!
I know! I flew into Istanbul dozens of time from 2010-2015 and I never saw half of this stuff! Must be recent additions! I would have killed for a sleep pod during my layovers!
@@bpaboyceyou were 3 years too early because this new airport opened in October 2018. The old airport is only for domestic flights so I am sure will get in touch with the new airport on your next visit by plane.
Nap zones & sleep capsules are fantastic !! The lounge area is awesome!! All airports need them! Brilliant! 😴 ✈️ 💤
I really enjoyed this experience! You make the element of exploration and adventure seem so fun! Aloha, Dionne
He is so entertaining and informative. This airport is the best! I ended up buying a bunch of last-minute foodstuff souvenirs on the way home at the central open market where he almost bought the fluffy white coat, LOL -they have a huge selection! Love this guy.
All I kept thinking was “ please just find anywhere to sleep, you’re nearly out of time before your flight”! 😂
One thing you should know is that when you peel a hard boiled egg and the whites tend to stick with the shell, it's a fresh new egg. When the shell peels off easily, it's an older egg (ie. Grocery store). Source: my mom has a hobby farm with chickens.
Ah, I didn't know that! Thanks for the tip! 👊
Yea, that’s why we bought our eggs for Easter a couple weeks earlier, easier to peel after the hunt!
Throw the egg on the ground a couple of times and it will be easier to peel
I got trapped in Dallas once. Worst experience of my life at that airport but there was one elderly security guard who gave me directions to find a bench without a divider, one that I could actually lie down on. He also told me where to find the 24-hour 7-11 in the airport to get food as everything else was closed. He was so kind after I’d dealt with incredibly rude customer service desk, baggage claim, and TSA. I was so grateful for him.
Your 8 hours at an airport looked verrrry different than my 8 hours at an airport 😂🦊
Haha, what do you usually do with your time? 😅
Yup, me too, dragging mostly, tired & jet lagged
OMG....this is actually a thing! Several years ago, I was thinking about this idea and how helpful it would be to overnight travellers. Too bad I didn't create it🤦🏾♀️
If it's not in your local airport, you might be able to start it there.
There are new hotels businesses all the time. Why not start your own airport pod business?
@@drawingstyle6327 I agree! She should go for it!! 😁 You just never know
They’ve been around for many years mostly in Asia. I’m surprised the large airports in the US don’t have them. But then some large airports in the US have actual hotels inside the airport.
Bruh...
1) nobody care's
2) Do you have funding or some sort of connections?
The world does not work like that kid, go and educate yourself, find some jewish friends and then make your bright ideas come to life
@@andrewk.277 😂🤣💀
Righteous man real righteous I look forward to more videos
That airport is off the hook!!...love it
Baklava is AMAZING!! My Favorite thing ever next to Crème Brulée, Tiramisu, & Strawberry Shortcake. YUMMAH!
Meanwhile in America I feel like I’m in a herd of cattle at our outdated airports. Crappy food, uncomfortable chairs. Hardly any charging areas.
Thank you very much for this beautiful video I enjoyed it very much ❤
What a great video, thanks for sharing this
I loved Istanbul. The people were great. And the Ambassador Hotel with the rooftop terrace wonderful.
I stayed at the Ambassador Hotel many times when I flew into Istanbul on my way to Iraqi Kurdistan. Fantastic breakfast, and the view from the rooftop terrace is unbelievable-thousands of years of history can be seen in a single glance! Great hotel!
I was once stuck in Istanbul airport for 2 days. Had considered renting the airport hotel by the hour but the prices were stupid. Glad to see Istanbul got smart and added this low-cost option.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
My wife and I stayed here after it first opened when we were on our way to Italy. Beautiful airport.
Had 20 hour layover in Istanbul Airport last January. Got a hotel room, shopped, ate, checked out the art exhibit by the LV store. Great airport.
This is one of the very few airports on earth that I would say I could do a full 20 hours in.
@@GarethLeonard please watch the Camp Beagle
Why not leave the airport and explore Istanbul? It’s beautiful
@@kamlahj2550 I wish. This was Christmas 2021 and I was worried about the hassle of needing another COVID test and risk testing positive. Glad things are getting back to normal now.
I'm not sure I could sleep in here without freaking at how small a space it is, but I'd for sure give it a try - every hotel needs to have things like this for layovers!
I wouldn’t fit comfortably it’s too narrow
@HistoryChick seriously!? I’ve fallen asleep while getting a MRI. I can sleep just about anywhere though
Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed your video.
Flipping amazing! America needs these!
Best discovery we had, when we traveled through Istanbul! Even my 6’5” husband fit inside one & rested well!
I wish US airports were like this. I had a 20+ hour layover at JFK due to constant delays and it was one of the worst times of my life (I understand that there are people living a lot worse and I’m grateful that I can travel). I slept on cold hard floors and found nowhere decent to eat or freshen up
You forgot to add the US airport security staff who like to scream and yell - well that was my experience. ;)
JFK is a s@&t hole…
JFK is the blueprint on how not to build an airport. I'm always sad when I can't avoid it.
Omg. I had a 9 hour layover in JFK. I can’t imagine a 20+ hour layover. Oh. Man. I am surprised you survived. 😂😂😂
The worst layover I’ve experienced was an 11 hour delay at LaGuardia due to weather. My flight landed at 8pm and the connecting flight was delayed until the next morning. There was nowhere to sleep except for the floor. Add in a bunch of screaming kids and it made for an interesting time.
This felt like a short movie!! The moment they said there is still no available capsule and the tension he had, when he found one I was like yessss!!😂
I have never traveled international but have not seen anything like this in U.S. International Airports. Istanbul Int'l looked spacious, clean, and with several amenities!
Little known fact, but always check with the airlines to confirm this, when I checked last year, if you are flying on Turkish Airlines, and your delay is 12 hours or more, they will put you up in a room.
Oh, that's interesting! I didn't know that! Thank you for the tip. 👊
They will if there were not prior available flights to your destination or purposely you booked delay flight to get free hotel room.
Even crazier, with lay over of over 24h, TK gives an Istanbul Tour with driver.
Before covid Turkish airlines did a free city tour if you had a layover for 6 or more hours. If they haven't yet I hope they start doing that again soon. Thanks for the video, I heard that is a really nice, huge airport.
Really? That's an amazing service. Wow.
They still do the free city tour, if you have an 8 or 9 hour and more layover.
@@ShubnumKhan Awesome thanks. I checked in about April this year and they had not started doing it again after quarantine.
I had the cheesy pastry layers on my flight on Turkish air. It was so delicious! I was at the Istanbul airport last month on my way to Jordan 🇯🇴 I got to tour the private lounge and I saw the Buffett they offered. I ended up purchasing some incredible pizza on my layover. It was the most fancy airport I have ever been too. Thank you for making this incredible video. Since I was curious about the sleep pods. I also love baklava 😊
I travelled from London to Sydney, stopped in UAE for a few hours in between. I flew business with Emirates. Their lounge is awesome. Everything is free, and you’re treated like a saint lol. The business seat was wonderful. Because I’m afraid of turbulence, the massage features on the bed in my little pod was great. 👍🏽
The sleep pods are sickness incubators. With the cloth walls, I saw a posted video of a person sneezing and wiping his hand on the side of the pod, so I have avoided them at the airport. Regardless, it is a very nice airport.
He did not have to be a jerk to the attendants. There is no reservations and he could have asked about that ahead of time. He needed to realize that 10 pm to 5 am is their packed time, all the folks getting Zzzzs. Even if they say there will be space, there is no guarantee, since they do not evict sleepers. You just have to hang around and wait. I have a friend stay in one and he said it you hang around, they typically have one open up every 15 mins or so. He also slipped the attendant some dough and the guy signaled to him when it was open.
There is an awesome capsule hotel in Kuala Lumpur International Airport, I've used it a few times it's so good if you have a long wait between connecting flights, go dump your bags and have a shower, have a meal at one of the many restaurants, then climb into your comfy little capsule and have the best sleep, get a wakeup call for your flight have a shower and head off to your gate...
Wow, that's beautiful there for an airport. Thanks for the tour. 🤗🕊️Im so claustrophobic I would never be able to sleep in one of them. I feel like the walls would be closing in on me
I’m too claustrophobic for anything but the door completely open
@@MyKeeP81 Your eyes are closed when you sleep so you can dream of wide open spaces.
same here, but they had taller ones with windows!! or you can leave the top open and wear an eye mask to block light.
Loved the video very interesting and enjoyed your great sense of humor!
Thanks for the idea!!!
I just found your channel. Loved sharing your adventure. Croatia is my second favorite country in the World. Spent a week on one of the islands and a couple of weeks on the mainland all during the off-season of 2008. I took my 14 year old son on a Euro Rail trip one semester before homeschooling ended and he started High School. Hope you loved the people and the country as much as I did. 🇭🇷
How does he just keep getting better and better looking!?!?!? Love to catch these videos! And, that YSL is a near perfect scent!
Thanks a lot for the video, Gareth. I was considering using these Sleepods during my layover in Istanbul airport, but after watching it, I'd rather splurge on a hotel - much more comfortable and quieter too. You get what you pay for :)
Thanks for this video
Always good to see what other airports are like (I haven’t been to many international ones) so thank you for sharing! I like these vlog style videos too. Looking forward to the Croatian videos. It’s a country I’d love to visit one day and this could be the nudge to do so 😊
The minute you closed the pod, I was freaking out. Felt claustrophobic immediately and I wasn’t in the pod. Lol 😂
What if you need to get out quickly?
Same. I wouldn't like not being able to sit up without opening it first.
This so cool!!! Definitely putting it on our list!!!
Thank you ❤
Geeze, I'm impressed. I have never seen anything so luxurious as an airport.
Great to see you traveling and looking well, Gareth!
Thanks Toney! ☺️
Just subscribed. Your are funny af. This was a very interesting video. Airport Adventures.
Oh man. I couldn’t do it. Such a great idea though. Very thoughtful and beautiful airport.
Not a traveler so this was so cool to watch.. very interesting. Lots of things to do in this airport. I couldn't sleep in that pod thing.. unless I guess I was super tired, even then I'm not so sure. Thank you for sharing this...
I feel like I could get used to watching Gareth wake up every morning. 🥰
He's way to cranky lol damn no thanks
We spent a few hours in a break room in the airport terminal. Had a Tv, couch/bed. It was hard to sleep without a blanket and the kicker was all the announcements were at full volume in the rooms.
amazing! full, fun fact, funny, all round wholesome video. Thank you!!!!!!!!!
Istanbuls' new airport is super nice. I've slept in those pods and flown through 7 times. It's huge, expensive, and forced me to research Turkish airlines layover policy(9 hour or more free hotel room HACK).
me and my family getting ripped off at yotel (we had to pay 300$ for 8 hours)
That was fun, a lot more modern and beautiful than what I expected...
Istanbul was so beautiful when I was there in 2012 but I only spent 8 hours there. Great video
Just found your video. Love it.
That’s nice to see. I remember flying from Frankfurt to Houston about 10 years ago. My flight had a layover of around 14 hours I believe. I was told that as long as your layover is over 12 hours, the airline will put you up in a hotel free of charge. Of course when I get there, Turkish airlines acted as if they had no idea about this policy. As I wasn’t comfortable venturing outside the airport after midnight, I was forced to sleep on the floor with my backpack as my pillow. Would have been nice to have this option back then.
that's inhumane!
I slept in that same airport coming back to Houston. They corralled up all the people in the airport and forced them into one section. We found a place to lay down on the floor and that was that. Super uncomfortable but it was what it was.
I stayed in a similar “hotel” at Changi Airport in Singapore as well. One of the only airports I wasn’t in a hurry to leave
@@davidfrey5654 hobby airport or Gorge Bush ?
@@Hengry-hn7rb we flew into Bush. But we had to spend the night in the Frankfurt airport.
Great travel hack for the fragrance and lotion. Amazing to see a true 24 hour open airport. I see you cut it close getting to the gate.
Great job with the video!
The tip about using the duty free shop samples to help your skin and smell better is priceless. I never thought of doing that.
Missed you Gareth! Glad ur back! Hell To The No on the sleeping pods! Coffin.I wld have just slept in lounge somewhere.Looking forward to Croatia travels.
Haha, fair enough Deborah! ☠️ Thanks for following along!🇭🇷
