In today’s time, airports are no longer just a place to board a flight and reach your destination. Over the years, airports have evolved to offer travellers more comfort and convenience, with plenty of spaces to relax, unwind, or get work done while waiting for their flights. Some airports are turning into mini cities where you can sleep, shop, work, work out and even play a sport. And recently, a surprising video showed that Delhi Airport has a badminton court and gym, grabbing everyone’s attention online. Scroll down for more details.
Badminton Court And Gym Inside Delhi Airport
In a recent post, X user Rahul Mathur (@Rahul_J_Mathur) shared his experience at the Holiday Inn Express transit hotel inside Terminal 3 of the Delhi Airport. He mentioned that he had a 13-hour layover after his flight from Bengaluru to San Francisco got cancelled, and then he flew from Bengaluru to Delhi instead. And what he saw inside surprised him.
Rahul was shocked to see that the terminal building had a gym and even a proper badminton court inside. He went for a 30-minute run on the treadmill. The most fascinating part for him was being able to literally watch flights take off and land while working out, with a clear view of NH-8. Another feature that went viral was the badminton court. During his visit, the court was empty.
