Are you tired of sleeping around at airports?

NAPLINE is a startup that aims to implement a set of capsules in the security zone of high traffic airport terminal's, allowing travelers to spend a comfortable and safe overnight transition at the airport in an innovative environment. DO YOU NAP?

The crowdfunding campaign launched by NAPLINE, emerged following the entrepreneurial contest of BET24-challenge 1.0. 

Why are we innovative? 

• The capsules offer travelers the opportunity to rest, relax or simply enjoy your time in a modern and comfortable environment.;
• There is no need to go through time consuming security procedures or face visa issues again;
• Attractive price that aims to attract travelers who have purchasing power, but who are not willing to pay a very high price for the little time they have to spend at the airport;
• Modular solution with an eye-catching design that allows the efficient management of space;
• The interior oh each capsule will have customizable features according to customer's need;

Is there a market for this product?

Last year there were worldwide  over 3 Billion layovers. This trend is expected to double in the next two years in which about 63.4% of travelers consider spending the night at the airport. After analysis of existing solutions on the market that meet the need of rest during periods in which the traveler is doing layovers or dealing with delayed flights it turns out that there are few solutions. Existing solutions like Hostels/Hotels, most of the times are unviable and the solutions offered by the airports (Business Lounges) are not directed to a more general audience.
