Abu Dhabi Airport ‘GoSleep’ Sleeping Pods
The days of sleeping on the airport floor or curling up on metal seats may be over, as Abu Dhabi installs sleeping pods in its airport terminals.
The ‘GoSleep’ is the latest, state of the art chair that converts
into a private flat bed. Ten sleeping pods have now been installed in
Terminal 3 and in the Al Dhabi Lounge in Terminal 1 at Abu Dhabi
International Airport, with a further 35 on order for installation later
this year.
The stylish, Finnish designed sleeping pods are
easy-to-operate and feature a partial or fully enclosed sliding shade
that isolates the customer from noise, light and crowds. After an
initial launch phase, the chairs will be upgraded to include Internet
access, will include secure storage for luggage and other valuables, and
will allow customers to charge their laptops, mobile telephones, and
other electronic devices. Passengers will be able to use the chairs at a
rate of AED 45/hour using a credit card.
