Episode Details

What if you could turn a layover into a lifestyle? This episode dives into the strange appeal of airport terminals and asks whether you can actually live airside—hopping from one transit hotel to the next without ever formally entering a country. We break down the legal limits of transit visas, the booking caps built into airport hotels, and the psychological shift that happens when a temporary space becomes your permanent reality. From Changi's butterfly gardens to Dubai's four-hour hotel blocks, we map out the practical and existential limits of making the airport your home.
