'Napcabs' To Change The Way People Experience Airports

Napcabs are about to change the lives of individuals who commonly travel. Get ready for a solution to those unfortunate circumstances when a flight is delayed, when you have work to do and no quiet place to complete it exists or when you simply need a moment to yourself - the Napcab will be one's new desired location.

The four-square-meter sanctuary is designed to be a tiny private room, equipped with luggage storage, a bed and a small workplace. It gets better - the space provides Internet access, bed linens, an iPod dock and music and videos, even an alarm clock is provided so one won't be the person who misses their flight!

So, how much does this sleeping pod cost? According to Huffington Post, rates are about $12 to $18 per hour, with a $35 minimum - all one needs is a credit card! These Napcabs are accessible in Munich Airport and as far as we know, plans for expanding to other airports are undetermined, but we strongly believe the concept will be universally accepted.

Check out this sleep option for travelers in Japan, a capsule hotel that allows individuals to snooze before flights just feet away from their terminal gates.One could bet very soon that a widespread change in accomodations will satisfy today's jetsetters.
