It might be the world’s best airport, going by a survey of passengers, but workers at Changi International Airport in Singapore still need a bit of extra help to cool off inside the sprawling five-terminal hub.

For this reason, Changi Airport Group says it is providing “refresh pods” for the roughly 30,000 people employed at the airport, some of whom have to operate outdoors in temperatures frequently in the 30°Cs.
