    Flying fantasies

    18 August 2014

    What would you find in the perfect airport?

    After asking about our biggest problems with local airports, Travel Start asked more than 6 000 South Africans what they would add to an airport if they could, and the answers were interesting.

    Apparently, features we would find helpful include a library, beauty and grooming services, as well as entertainment spaces.

     

    Of course, the biggest wish comes as no surprise… Check out the full list here:

    1. 65% say free WiFi should be mandatory. We already have 50MB or 30 minutes of free WiFi at all ACSA airports, but if 65% still want more, it’s clearly not enough.
    2. 47% would like a nap area to catch up on sleep they’ve lost to jetlag.
    3. 39% hate having to cross long distances to get from their terminal to their boarding gate. It can be especially annoying when you have to sprint to catch a connecting flight in another part of the airport.
    4. 27% would like airside shower facilities.
    5. 23% could use some help keeping the kids entertained and would appreciate a playroom.
    6. 13% want to pass the time between flights in – surprise, surprise – a library.
    7. 12% think a health spa would be a good way to de-stress before or after a long haul flight.
    8. 11% see themselves catching up on the latest blockbusters in an airport cinema.
    9. 9% would like to chill and beat a random traveller’s billiard’s score in a games room.
    10. 6% want to use extra time in the airport to burn calories in a gym.
