    到着時はホテルへまっしぐらだけど、帰りの便では是非とも楽しみたいのが、新千歳空港。

    お昼過ぎとか中途半端な便に乗るなら、早めにホテルをチェックアウトして、この空港で過ごすのもオススメですよ。

    というのも、空港内には充実のお土産売り場やグルメエリアが多数あり、お店選びだけで相当楽しめます。
    加えて、新千歳空港シアターもあるから、出発時まで映画を見て過ごすことも可能。空港内に映画館があるのって、ミッドランドシネマ 名古屋空港とココだけですよ!

    空港内は席も多くあり待合スペースも広々。フリーWi-Fiでお仕事もはかどります。

    早起きしたため、ホテルで出発時間を変に待ってしまうより、準備できたら早めにいけば良かったと思わせるような素敵な空港ですよ!
