If you arrive at the airport at 12pm but don’t want to stay in a hotel, how can you survive the night without spending money?

A friend who works as a ground handler at the airport told me that if you don’t want to spend money to stay in a hotel, but also want to rest at the airport for a night, there are several places you must know about. Sleeping here is better than sleeping in a hotel. It's comfortable.

When it comes to airports, many people will not be unfamiliar with it. Airplanes are also the main mode of transportation for people nowadays. If you want to go to a certain city, what time period do you usually buy an airplane? .

Some people may say, I will buy a flight that takes off during the day and arrives at the destination during the day, so that after getting off the plane, I can arrive at the corresponding hotel in time to check in. But there are also some people who often choose flights that take off late at night.

The advantage of this kind of flight is that the price is relatively cheap, which is suitable for those who are in a hurry or don’t have much money. This kind of flight has a big flaw, that is, after you decide on the destination, you may not know where to go. It's already after 12 o'clock in the morning.

At this time, some airport buses have stopped operating. If you stay in a hotel, it is not worth it. The prices of hotels around the airport are relatively high. How to spend the five or six hours at the airport. It has become a matter of concern to many people.

It is certainly a good thing if you have relatives and friends driving to pick you up when you arrive at your destination after midnight. It is impossible for everyone to have their own good friends in every city who can pick you up in the early morning. Then the airport will pick you up, and a large group of people will be directly trapped at the airport.

You can only wait for the early morning sunshine and take the first airport bus back to the city center. If you want to rest at the airport, you not only need to find a suitable place to sleep, but more importantly, it is safe. Question, the safety here refers not only to your personal safety, but also to the safety of your luggage.

I will use this time today to let my friend, who works as a ground handler at the airport, lead you to find places where you can sleep at the airport. There is always one of these places that is suitable for you. Everyone, take a seat, we are leaving as usual.

How to spend a night at the airport without spending money?

1. VIP Lounge

The VIP Lounge is a place specially provided for stranded or transit passengers to rest. If you arrive at the airport late at night, this lounge is a good choice. .

There are usually multi-functional sofas, TVs, boiling water, etc. in the lounges. In some lounges, there are coffee or free pastries and other food and drinks. If you arrive at the airport at night, stranded passengers can spend time in this lounge.

But it should be noted that when resting in the lounge, keep your luggage and other valuables out of your sight. In addition, do not wear slippers in the lounge. After some people put on their slippers, the entire rest room was filled with foot odor.

This undoubtedly has a bad impact on other people's rest. I have seen people specially take a few plastic straps, put the shoes into a plastic bag, and then use the plastic bag to wrap the entire foot. Such a break.

If you are stranded in the airport at night, this lounge is definitely your first choice. Sometimes, being in the lounge is more comfortable than staying in a hotel bed.

2. One-piece seats

Generally, at night, there are relatively few people in the airport, so there will be a lot of free one-piece seats. Chair, choose a suitable location at this time and try not to be disturbed by other people.

You can lie down and rest. It is worth noting that if the seat is relatively cold in winter, you need to put a layer of cloth under the seat when lying down to sleep. This will make your sleep a little more comfortable.

When resting on the one-piece seat, you must pay attention to the safety of your valuables. The airport is inherently crowded, and there are all kinds of people. If your valuables are stolen by others, It would be bad to just walk away.

If you want to sleep in, you need to communicate with the restaurant staff in advance. Under normal circumstances, the staff will not refuse you, as long as you don't affect other people's business.

When I couldn't find a place before, I just ate for a while in a restaurant. The service staff at the restaurant were very nice and they even put my luggage at their bar. You can safely and boldly Xiaomi without worrying about the safety of your luggage.

4. Massage chairs

There are massage chairs in every airport, neatly arranged in a row. If they were placed during the day, there must be massage chairs on them. For people boarding the plane, if it is at night, these massage chairs can be said to be empty.

Sit directly on the massage chair to sleep, put your luggage directly in front of the massage chair, and put your legs directly on top of your suitcase. When placing the suitcase, be sure to The wheels are locked directly.

In this case, you can sleep peacefully. Sometimes the massage chair will keep talking and you need to plug your ears with cotton swabs. It is still okay to take a rest. After all, You don't have a very long break.

You left at dawn. I slept on a massage chair, so I shared it. I slept quite comfortably at that time, and I rested for four hours. Time, it was already dawn when I woke up, and it was time for me to leave. It was completely okay to make a temporary transition.

When I usually take a night flight, I will calculate my time and be fully prepared for my rest in the airport in advance. There are more night flights, so I will gain some experience.

In addition, my friend is a ground handler and will tell me some things. A sleeping bag is undoubtedly a must-have item for falling asleep. The entire sleeping bag can be packed into a suitcase and takes up less space. It's not very big, but this sleeping bag can really bring me convenience at critical times.

Sometimes, when you visit a strange city, it may be affected by the local temperature. Generally, the temperature at night is very low. If you rest directly at the airport, it is very likely that you will Will catch a cold.

If you have a sleeping bag, you don’t have to worry about this problem at all. If there are people taking night flights, I suggest that each of you prepare a sleeping bag. These are all experiences gained in practice.

6. Space Capsule Hotel

In many domestic airports, there will be a space capsule hotel. The price is not very good. The price is less than 100 yuan, which is definitely enough for you. Live until dawn. The capsule hotel is specially designed for these people who are stranded in airports and transit stations.

When staying in a space capsule hotel, you can sleep safely and boldly. Many space capsules provide you with a wake-up service. As long as you set your wake-up time, you will be able to wake up at that time. Yes, someone will wake you up directly.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of space capsule is very suitable for business people to stay. Staying in such a hotel can ensure that you will be full of energy the next day. If you sleep somewhere else I always feel like I can't sleep well.

If you want to have a better rest, you still have to spend some money. If you are looking for a place to stay at the airport and take a break, you can choose from the above places without spending any money. A share of money.

The above six places are all places where you can rest at the airport. Except for the sleeping bag, which requires you to prepare it in advance, and the space capsule, which requires you to pay an extra fee, the rest of the places are free places where you can sleep. .
