What are Minute Suites?
Minute Suites are private suites that can provide a quiet, private place to work, sleep and generally unwind before or between flights. Each suite has a daybed, desk, television and chair.

Most locations are open 24 hours a day and can provide a convenient, clean, safe space to spend the night without ever leaving the airport.
