Five major U.S. airport hubs have implemented these amenities, allowing passengers to exercise, stretch, or relax.

San Francisco International Airport (SFO) has been a pioneer in this area since 2012 when it introduced the first yoga room at an airport. "SFO was the first airport to introduce a yoga room in 2012," reports Orbitz. Today, SFO offers two yoga rooms and a fitness studio operated by ROAM Fitness with gym equipment available for travelers.
