UK - Gatwick - Airport passenger asleep in empty terminal

A lone sleeping passenger rests on a bench in an otherwise peaceful corner of Gatwick airport in England. Having chosen a quiet location in the terminal, near departure number gate 44, there is enough space to stretch out and grab some valuable sleep. Jet lag, medically referred to as desynchronosis, is a physiological condition which results from alterations to the body's circadian rhythms resulting from rapid long-distance transmeridian (east–west or west–east) travel on a (typically jet) aircraft. It was previously classified as one of the circadian rhythm sleep disorders.
