Long layovers: how to make the most of them (and rest)
A multi-hour layover doesn't have to be wasted time. See how to turn the wait into rest, productivity or even a quick city visit.
A long layover can be exhausting or become a pleasant break. It all depends on how you plan the wait.
First, get organized
- Check the real time between flights
- See whether you need to change terminals
- Know where services, food and rest areas are
How to enjoy the wait
- Rest in a quiet space instead of a crowded gate
- Eat calmly and stay well hydrated
- Get ahead on work or study with fast Wi-Fi
- If time and rules allow, explore the city
To arrive fresh for the next flight
- Watch the board so you don't miss gate changes
- Keep a buffer before boarding
- Take the chance to recharge devices and yourself
A good layover is one where you rest, not one you merely endure.
