A solo traveler shared her top tips for staying safe and getting some real rest if you ever have to sleep at the airport.

Sabina Trojanova, 30, from the Czech Republic, is the founder of the travel blog Girl vs Globe and author of #Wanderlust: The 500 Most Unforgettable Travel Destinations in the World.

The influencer, who goes by the pseudonym @girlvsglobe, has more than 122,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares her tips for traveling the world.

When Trojanova’s flight to Mexico suffered a “terrible 10-hour delay” last week, she took the opportunity to give a “little lesson about sleeping in the airport.”

When Trojanova’s flight to Mexico was “terribly delayed” by 10 hours last week, she took the opportunity to give a “little lesson about sleeping in the airport.”

The creator explained that her “outfit is very important” and said she wore layers and brought a blanket from her last flight

Trojanova recommended “sleeping near other people as it is safe” and panned the camera to show that some travelers were nearby

“I’m going to show you how to sleep in the airport because I’m going to do it myself,” she said. “I would have preferred to go through security, but it simply wasn’t possible due to time constraints.”

The traveler noted in the text on the screen that there are typically more seats, lounges and food on the air side of the airport, “but you can’t come in late at night.”

Trojanova concluded that sleeping in the pre-security area was her “second-best scenario” while waiting for her flight.

She first suggested checking out the free website Sleepinginairports.net, which offers “a lot of information” and “reviews from real people.”

“It’s not sponsored, but I use it myself,” she explained.

Trojanova then revealed that she was dressed casually and said that “your outfit is very important” when you spend hours at the airport.

“I’m not proud of this, but I also brought this blanket with me from my flight because it’s the airline’s fault that I was stuck here for 10 hours,” she admitted.

She recommended “sleeping close to other people because safety is extremely important” and panned the camera to show there were some travelers nearby.

Trojanova noted that the airport seats were “not ideal because of the armrests,” but she was able to sleep face down on them

Before falling asleep, Trojanova cleverly tied the wire of her earplugs to her luggage and wrist to ensure that no one could steal her belongings.

“It is very important that you secure your luggage while you sleep, otherwise someone might come along and take it. “So this is my stop buddy,” she explained.

The travel expert ended her video with a tip to sleep lying down.

‘“This type of seat is not ideal because of the armrests, but it gives a position in which you can sleep,” she said as she turned the camera to face down.

“Congratulations and have a good night,” she concluded.

Trojanova’s video has been viewed more than 969,000 times and has inspired other users to share their own airport stories.

“My dad once refused to drive me at 6am, so he dropped me off at 7pm the night before,” one person said.

“I stayed twice at O’Hare and once in Atlanta. It’s not great but you do what you can,” added another.

“I was stuck overnight at BMI for 10 hours when my flight was canceled and rebooked the next morning and I had nowhere to go… I was with my two year old,” another recalled.
