Project Overview
Prolonged airport layovers and delays can be a great inconvenience to travelers, but luckily, more airports are making efforts to alleviate the tedium of long hours spent waiting around terminals by adding lifestyle and entertainment amenities. As an example, San Francisco International Airport offers a yoga studio.
Fittingly, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport has live music venues. Hong Kong International Airport even has a golf course. In February of 2017, Portland International Airport joined this list with the opening of a microcinema—a free, 17-seat theater that shows short films from Pacific Northwest filmmakers. Developed by Portland’s non-profit Hollywood Theatre in collaboration with the PDX Art program at the Port of Portland, the Hollywood Theatre at Portland International Airport is open to travelers around the clock.
