Ngủ 'bụi' ở sân bay

trong các hộp ngủ, có thể ở mức thấp 30usd/đêm,

nhưng liệu sân bay có ok dành chỗ cho dịch vụ này không, khi tính bình quân, một chiếc ghế nhà hàng có thể mang lại doanh thu 20.000 usd/năm, và các sân bay cũng có mối quan hệ tốt với những khách sạn hạng sang gần đó...

Sleep pods are coming to more and more airports. Last month, Washington Dulles International put out a call for proposals for a company to provide “a quiet and comfortable place within the airport to sleep, relax, or work while waiting to board a flight”. Mexico City’s airport has just added sleep pods with a space-age design for $30 a night. YotelAir, which offers pods in Amsterdam, London and Paris, is a touch more expensive at $42 for four hours. Dearer still is Minute Suites, which has operations in three American airports with a fourth coming later this year. Its prices start at $32 an hour. NapCity, which is yet to sign its first lease, will charge $45 for the first hour and a slightly lower rate after that.

The concept is not new. Japan opened its first capsule hotels in the late 1970s. But today sleep pods seem to be on the verge of conquering Western airports.

The founder of one capsule hotel company told Bloomberg that a single seat in a restaurant can generate $20,000 a year. It is unclear whether sleeping pods, even the most-compact of which take up the space of a couple of restaurant seats, will generate returns that big.
