Flight Delays? Try out an Airport Spa!
by Susie Ellis
I had my first airport spa experience. Not because I haven’t tried before. When I have stopped at one of these places for a quick manicure or foot reflexology, they have always been totally booked. But finally on my way to catch a flight to San Diego on Sunday afternoon (which was delayed) I was able to get a “polish change” at d_parture Spa at the Newark Airport.
Loved it. For $14, the manicurist was able to take off my chipping nail polish, do some clean up and add fresh polish. The place had a nice feel. Very clean, modern, new. There was a woman getting color on her hair, a pilot stopped in for a haircut and a couple of guys received chair massages.
What a time-saver this turned out to be. And it didn’t hurt that I had plenty of time for my nails to dry since all I was going to do for the next five hours was sit and read.
