A cinema in Xian, Shaanxi province, China, has garnered attention online for its innovative noon nap service. Located at Lumiai Cinema, this initiative allows workers to relax during their lunch breaks in adjustable, flat seats. The service, launched in April last year, offers monthly subscriptions at 39.9 yuan (US$6) for a single pass and 59.9 yuan for a double pass.
Patrons can nap in two designated halls from 12 pm to 2:30 pm, with complimentary blankets, coffee, and beverages provided. Disposable earplugs and eye masks are available for 5.9 yuan. Customers are asked to silence their phones and keep shoes on. The "lying flat plan" taps into a trend of younger generations embracing a minimalist lifestyle.
Over half of the seats are used for the service most days, and the cinema hopes the initiative will grow in popularity across the country.
