Yotelair has partnered with Gillian Anderson’s functional drinks brand, G Spot for a "Slayover" service designed to help travellers combat airport stress and make the most over layover time.
Available at Yotelair hotels in London, Paris, Istanbul, Amsterdam and Singapore, the Slayover packages include layover rescue kits, dedicated concierges and flexible cabin stays to help travellers "rest, reset or re-energise" before take-off or after landing.
Guests can choose from three different kits depending on their needs. The "Moment of pause kit" includes meditation guides, pillow sprays, herbal teas and a can of G Spot Soothe. The "Rest & reset kit" features sleep aids, electrolyte sachets and G Spot Protect for immunity support, while the "Power up kit" contains protein balls, face masks, resistance bands and G Spot Lift for natural energy.
Each location will have dedicated Slayover Concierges to help guests select appropriate kits based on flight schedules and destinations, while offering airport navigation tips.The initiative comes as research reveals that 62% of British passengers find airports stressful, with layovers identified as a major source of frustration during peak summer travel season.
"It's clear travellers want to do layovers differently," says Olivia Donnan, vice president of brand at Yotel. "We've seen day-use hotel bookings up 5.2% year-on-year at all YOTELAIR properties globally showing a growing demand for flexible, private spaces during transit to combat travel limbo."
She adds: "Yotelair was where our journey began back in 2007, with our very first hotel in London Gatwick Airport, so now almost twenty years on, we're thrilled to be continuing to innovate the airport experience globally."The collaboration with G Spot, known for its mood-based functional drinks, aims to combine practical travel solutions with wellness benefits. The G Spot team comments: "Partnering with Yotelair on the Slayover is a perfect match. These kits aren't just functional - they're fun, turning layovers into mini rituals travellers can actually look forward to."
The Slayover kits are priced from £15/€17/S$30 and can be purchased at check-in or added during booking for Istanbul and Singapore locations. Yotel Club members booking direct receive 10% off their stay, 20% off food and beverage and midday cancellation options.
