This US airport boasts the world’s only “recombobulation area”
This is lovely – General Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee has three “recombobulation areas” for tired, stressed travellers to get themselves together after getting off a flight and going through security.

On Milwaukee reports that despite “recombobulation” not technically being an actual word, the areas have proved a hit with knackered passengers.
“Whether it’s a word or not, I think we can all agree we all feel discombobulated after going through a security checkpoint and need a minute to recombobulate, whether that means tying our shoes or putting our laptop away,” said Harold Mester, the airport’s public relations manager.
Bonus recombobulation fact:
In 2009, the American Dialect Society named it the most creative word of the year

We humbly suggest more places could do with recombobulation areas.
