Connecting flight hours away? Rent a 'bedroom' at international airport

Mumbai: Waiting for your connecting international flight? Now, no need to need to yawn or break your neck nodding off on the airport benches. The Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (CSIA) has placed ‘sleeping cubicles’ at the T-2C Mezzanine.
Airport officials said the cubicles, which have been made in Germany, have a noise-proof mechanism, which will cut down the chaos and hustle-bustle inside the airport so that passengers can relax or work in a comfortable environment before continuing the journey.
Passengers will have to pay for the time spent inside a cubicle, apart from certain minimum fees.
A similar system is already in place at other airports in the world, such as at Munich in Germany.
