Fun Facts - July 2009

The WORST & BEST Airports for SLEEPING!

July 21st 2009 09:00

According to the Guide to Sleeping in Airports, the top 10 worst Airports in the world to catch some shut-eye in are:

1. Paris - Charles de Gaulle
2. Moscow - Sheremetyevo
3. New York - JFK
4. Los Angeles
5. Delhi
6. Chicago - O'Hare
7. Mumbai
8. Manila
9. Rome - Fiumicino
10. London - Heathrow

The best airports in the world for sleeping in have also been determined, as the following:

1. Singapore - Changi
2. Seoul - Incheon
3. Amsterdam - Schiphol
4. Oslo - Gardermoen
5. Hong Kong
6. Dubai
7. Frankfurt International
8. Munich
9. Vancouver
10. Denver

Having had an uncomfortable night's 'sleep' in Dubai, it makes me wonder how the comparisons stack up against each other.

Have you ever tried to sleep in an airport before, and how well did it go for you?

I've lived in Dubai for quite some time, and whenever i fly from Dubai, i'm ALWAYS able to fall asleep in that airport, it's much more quiet than the LA and NYC airports

I've crashed in the Philly airport numerous times on return trips from abroad. The check-in area has some interior design pieces that provide a secluded twin size "bed". It's very hard, but quiet - in winter you have enough layers to make it comfortable.

Our plane couldn't land in London/Heathrow when we were traveling between Copenhagen and New York/JFK. We landed at another airport and were driven to Heathrow by bus.
When we arrived at Heathrow our plane had been sent off and we need'd to sleep in Heathrow -.-'
