My most immediate concerns are ATL and MSP. I like the sleeping room at the KLM lounge (52?) in AMS so have not had to use the commercial rooms at AMS that are well known on FT [which I recently used to good advantage with a 6 hour layover from IST]. I used to be able to take a nap in the ATL A17 Concourse when they had recliners. I have tried the ottomans in C37 but the club is small and a bit noisy. I thought there was an announcement on FT about commercial sleeping rooms at ATL but I did not record whatever I read during a five week driving trip.

I have not yet had a long enough layover in MSP to search for sleeping rooms either in or outside the clubs but am looking at long layovers tied to trips that total 26/27 hours. As a DVT/PE patient, being able to elevate my legs is not simply a matter of 'getting comfortable'.
I have seen folks using the "quiet room" area at MSP for snoozing - it is a second floor balcony over the shopping-mall strip - you access it by the elevator located next to the Sky Club.
