Relax

Don’t spend your travel downtime sitting at the gate, relax in the comfort of a lounge and get away from the hustle and bustle of the terminal.Sanctifly has one partner lounge at DOH. Premium members can use a pass to access the Al Maha Transit Lounge in Terminal 1. Enjoy a relaxing atmosphere, shower facilities, air conditioning and complimentary snacks while you wait for your flight. You can find and book ‘Lounge’ experiences over on the ‘Facilities’ tab.

Meditate

Quiet RoomsIf you’re looking for some peace and quiet before your flight starts boarding head to the airport Quiet Rooms. These tranquil areas offer a calm and softly-lit ambience accompanied by comfortable recliners for you to rest, read or take a nap. Choose one of our guided meditation videos, which you can find over on the ‘Videos’ tab and use your airport downtime to relax and centre yourself.Separate quiet rooms for men and women are located across our passenger terminal. Follow the signs to find them.

Walk The Terminal

Art Exhibitions at DOHDon’t spend the time before your flight sitting at the gate. Take advantage of your time to move your body before getting on the plane. Walking the terminals is a great low impact way to stay active and get a little exercise before your board. DOH has many impressive art exhibitions throughout the terminals thanks to its partnership with Qatar Museums. Take a walk through the airport and see if you can find all the amazing art that the airport has to offer.

Stretch At The Gate

If you don’t have much time at the airport before your flight but still want to do something good for your body and mind, take the time to stretch and do some yoga. You don’t even have to venture far from your gate, find a little space and stretch and move your muscles before getting on your flight. Movement and exercise can help with circulation and make it much easier to relax and even sleep on the plane. There are lots of video tutorials you can follow in the Sanctifly app and none of them require equipment or very much space. You can find them over on the ‘Videos’ tab. Take ten minutes to move your body before catching your flight you won’t regret it!
