Chicago’s US$26m (£15.4m, €18.8m) overhaul of O’Hare Airport’s international terminal, unveiled last week, now features a number of new facilities including a spa.
It’s the first redevelopment of the airport’s Terminal 5 since its construction in 1993 and features a sleek interior-design upgrade that aims to give the terminal the feel of a comfy lounge or high-end nightclub.
The Terminal’s XpresSpa is tailored towards the traveller and offers an extensive treatment menu, special travel skincare line and signature massage loungers to provide travellers with wellness on the go. Launched in 2003 by founders Marisol and Moreton Binn at New York’s John F. Kennedy airport, XpresSpa specialises in air spa offerings and has expanded to 46 locations in more than 20 major airports, with 10 new locations on the horizon as well as others in development.
Among new offerings at the airport are a local gourmet deli called The Goddess & Grocer and a restaurant overseen by celebrity chef Rick Bayless.
The trend for spas in airports continues to grow as such amenities are in high demand for airports hoping to attracting passengers who can be tempted to spend money on a layover.
