Have you ever had to sleep in an airport, train or bus station? While this isn't something I'd recommend you do voluntarily, there may come a time when luck has run out and you are left with no choice but to sleep sprawled out across plastic chairs.
Thankfully, the one time our flight was cancelled we were offered a night stay at the closest hotel. But often times in situations such as foul weather you may not be offered this luxury and you'll need to fend for yourself.
Whether it is a voluntary or unplanned overnight stay, you may want to check out http://www.sleepinginairports.net/index.html. In addition to general tips for sleeping in airports, it also features an extensive collection of airport, train and bus station reviews. You can find the best and worst airports around the globe, along with specific pros and cons, as well as airport sleeping tips. (#2 tip - bring a cheap inflatable pool raft)
Sleepinginairports.net was actually created as a tool for the budget traveler who PLAN on sleeping in an airport. From my research, there are plenty of budget travel options out there and in my opinion sleeping in an airport should be your last resort. There are some fantastic all inclusive deals out there to be found for the budget traveler. Check back with us later this month when we launch http://www.jetsetpilot.com/ for all the latest deals to Europe!
