Dubai International airport launches “sleep lounge”

DUBAI International airport has unveiled 27 sleep pods and cabins as part of the new Sleep ’n Fly lounge in Terminal 3.

For passengers needing to recharge during a long journey, the lounge features 20 Igloo sleep pods (measuring 200cm by 74cm) and seven air-conditioned, soundproofed Yawn cabins (measuring 4 sqm) with double beds. They can also be used as private offices.

After checking in at reception, a member of staff will show you to your pod. At an agreed time, they will return to wake you up with a hot or cold towel. Useful amenities such as shaving kits and a shoeshine service are available. Located close to Gate A1 in Concourse A, they can be booked for a one-hour nap or an entire night, either on arrival or via the Sleep ’n Fly website. sleep-n-fly.com
