Continuing our conversation from yesterday, this morning Nilou Motamed, Features Director at Travel + Leisure, stopped by the Today Show to discuss the best destinations to unplug. She mentioned that we’ll be seeing more of black hole resorts in the future. In a recent poll on today.com, 81% of people said they needed quiet time.

Check out these 6 quiet destinations Motamed mentioned on The Today Show:

1. Fairmont Kenauk At Le Chateau Montebello, Quebec

2. Arawak Beach Inn, Anguilla

3. Ranch At Live Oak Malibu, California

4. Casa Violeta, Talum, Mexico

5. Boulder Outdoor Survival School, Utah

Minute Suites: The alternative to sprawling across several seats at the departure gate.

When flights are delayed or cancelled, travelers find themselves looking for comfort in the very busy airport terminals around the world. Minute Suites is here to help. Minute Suites allows travelers to book suites for short stays in the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and Philadelphia International Airport. Each suite comes equipped with a desk, Internet access and a daybed. Customers are still required to use airport restrooms.

Rates start at $30 for the first hour and $7.50 for each 15 minutes thereafter. Would you consider booking a Minute Suite?
