Nap Cab!

So, apparently they recently installed Napcabs in the Munich airport. It's a little shack where you can lie down, relax, listen to music and use the internet.

Apparently some students at the TUM came up with it, and I have to say I think it's a pretty awesome idea. I have had several experiences where I had to spend extended time in an airport, freezing my ass off and sleeping on uncomfortable airport chairs---and I know I would have loved to have something like that then. It's cool too because its right in the gate areas so you don't have to rush around.

I think the only downside is the price. Depending on the time it is 10-15€ per hour, which in and of itself isn't too bad, but unfortunately the minimum charge is 30€. As a lover of privacy and ocmfort though, I think I might just have to give myself a luxurious treat when I eventually fly home to the U.S. though :)
