What to Do During a Layover

Layovers can feel like wasted hours — but they don’t have to. With the right mindset (and the right lounge access), that time between flights can become one of the best parts of your trip.

Make It Productive

Instead of fighting for an outlet at the gate, head somewhere you can actually get work done. In lounges, you’ll find:

  • Reliable Wi-Fi
  • Quiet spaces for calls or emails
  • Comfortable seating that helps you focus

Tip: Treat your layover like a mini office — you’ll land with fewer emails waiting.

Give Yourself a Break

Travel is stressful. Use layovers to recharge instead of burn out. Lounges offer:

  • Premium coffee, snacks, and light meals
  • Sofas and quiet corners to relax
  • Showers in select locations so you feel refreshed

Tip: Even 30 minutes in a calmer space can reset your energy for the next flight.

Explore, If Time Allows

Got a longer layover? Some airports are worth exploring, but always balance adventure with rest. That’s why lounges are the perfect “home base” between flights.
