3 Ways to Airport Lux
Whenever I see a photo of Victoria Beckham or Jennifer Aniston, leaving an airport looking impossibly fresh, I wonder how does she do it? How do A-listers breeze through any stress-laden environment looking downright relaxed? They certainly owe a lot to huge, dark-circle-obscuring designer sunglasses, but the truth is, certain glamorous women just know how to get the most out of an early check in or layover. Perhaps they've figured out that beneath its bustling, sweaty surface, most airports are actually well-equipped with luxurious amenities. We’ve rounded up some handy advice to help you get the most out of airports and arrive looking like a movie star.
1.) Escape to a Lounge
You don’t need to fly first class to enjoy the luxury of a lounge. Many lounges offer day passes on days before your flight. We especially dig Delta’s Sky Club, located in airports throughout America. Fifty bucks grants you access to the super-posh lounges, where you can nosh on yummy, decidedly non-airport food while you enjoy free WiFi. The best part? You don’t need to be flying Delta to treat yourself to a pass. Luxury sans exclusivity gets a thumbs up in our book.
2.) Get Your Endorphins
Flight delays are aggravating. Why not work through your frustration at the gym? Many airports have great workout spots where you can work up a sweat. Chicago’s O'Hare International Airport Hilton Athletic Club is a choice place to burn some pre-flight calories, or just take a rejuvenating dip in their pool. Or, if you’re hoping to avoid the sin in Las Vegas, check out the primo gym in the McCarran International Airport. Nothing frays your nerves like nearly missing a flight. Say sayonara to traffic by picking a fab hotel in the airport. We love the Fairmont Vancouver Airport, a soundproof, luxury hotel, merely two minutes from the departure lounge at Vancouver International Airport. There’s no way you’ll miss your flight — unless, of course, you get distracted by the view of the Rockies as you relax in the day spa.
3.) Go Luggage Free
As much fun as it is trying to wrangle all your luggage through airport security (not to mention those tiny bathroom stalls), we’ve found a better way. Ship your bags ahead of time with Luggage Forward. This way, you can stick to a single stylish carry on on the day of your flight. Fill it with moisture-rich products like Philosophy’s Hope in a Bottle and Fresh’s Sugar Lip Treatment to assure you arrive looking hydrated and A-list amazing.
