Airport Dimensions has unveiled Sleepover, a rebrand of its sleep pod business and the formal introduction of a new airport “sleep station” category. The concept builds on the success of earlier deployments in Dubai and Doha, offering modular pods and cabins designed to deliver comfort, privacy, and flexibility for passengers in transit.
Positioned between public concourses and premium lounges, Sleepover offers travellers the ability to book private rest spaces by the hour, complete with optional shower facilities. The brand’s model converts underutilised terminal real estate into revenue-generating zones that align with passenger demand and operational rhythms — from early morning flights to long-haul layovers and irregular schedules.
At Dubai International and Hamad International Airport in Doha, the model has seen consistent uptake. Its most recent opening at Lima’s Jorge Chávez International Airport is also gaining traction, with average stays of three to four hours and strong interest in both Flexisuites and Nap Pods.
“Travellers want privacy and real rest in the hours between or before flights, without having to compromise,” said Andrew Van Eeden, Vice President, Global New Product & Innovations at Airport Dimensions. “Sleepover gives them that calm — in the terminal, on their terms — while giving airports a configurable, insight-led product that fits operational reality.”
According to the company’s latest AX25 and Experience Era research, 49 percent of passengers actively want or are highly interested in sleep facilities at airports. Meanwhile, 95 percent of airport executives admit that terminal space is not being fully utilised — an opportunity the Sleepover model directly targets.
Marinela Beke, Travel Retail Manager at Lima Airport, said: “We saw the gap between the public concourse and premium spaces, especially around early flights and long connections. Sleepover closes that gap with a pragmatic approach. Early adoption has been strong, feedback is positive, and it complements our existing offer by giving passengers a practical way to travel more comfortably.”
Beyond convenience, Sleepover reflects a broader shift toward experience-led airport services that match changing traveller expectations. By providing rest and privacy as a pay-as-you-go alternative to traditional lounges, it offers airports a new way to enhance customer satisfaction while boosting non-aeronautical revenue.
Lauren Burrill, Vice President, Global Marketing at Airport Dimensions, said the brand was built around passenger insight. “Sleepover is a brand based on deep listening of guest feedback and consumer insight into what people need to feel at ease,” she said. “Our role is to turn that understanding into experiences that are simple, intuitive, and scalable.”
The Sleepover identity — clean, cross-cultural, and easy to navigate — is designed for rapid recognition in busy terminals. For Airport Dimensions, the move represents a clear step in its strategy to reimagine airport space, using data-led design to anticipate the needs of tomorrow’s traveller.
