Stranded Passengers Pitch Tents, Not Fits
If you've ever spent the night in an airport, you know trying to sleep crouched down in the hard airport chairs is excruciating. And as airlines try to cut costs by eliminating hotel vouchers, painful and sleepless nights are becoming more common.
But one frequent flier has devised a solution. Frank Giotto’s new Mini Motel comes with everything you need to sleep comfortably for a night. The Mini Motel, which sells for $49.95 including shipping, is a one-person tent that comes with an air mattress, pillow, bed sheet, alarm clock, reading light, toothbrush, toothpaste, ear plugs, and eye shades. And it all folds down into a package about the size of a laptop.
And it’s not just for airports.
The Mini Motel can also be used by emergency organizations as a cost-effective replacement for emergency cots. They accommodate more people, require less storage space, and add the benefit of privacy.
For displaced people, disaster relief workers, or just a painful night in the airport, Mini Motels could prove to be very useful.
