What do you think of when you consider taking a transit flight? Or even a midnight or early morning flight? I don’t know about you, but nodding off on an airport lobby bench, scavenging for power outlets, and struggling to keep an eye on your belongings while other travellers brush past you immediately comes to my mind.

For those who prefer a more serene spot to relax, the library lounge at Aerotel is a great option.

Whether you need to catch up on a book, check emails, or just clear your head, the lounge offers a peaceful retreat that makes your transit feel more like a leisurely stop than a rushed connection.
Kiss “hobo-ing” at the airport goodbye. You can now save on expensive direct flight tickets and still have a great transit experience.
