Spending the night at the airport

Where to rest: Many of the seats have armrests, but there are more comfortable benches in the check-in area. If you have a sleeping bag, you can lay down in the carpeted area located by the baggage reclaim hall. Passengers wishing for a longer rest can arrange their transfer directly with one of the nearby hotels.
