LOVE YOUR LAYOVER

Logging lots of airport time? A slew of gate-side diversions await, including:

SHIATSU MASSAGES IN VANCOUVER. In addition to body treatments, the sleek Absolute Spa at The Fairmont Vancouver Airport (604-248-2772) adjoins a fitness center featuring a lap pool with adjustable current.

CONCERTS IN AUSTIN. Showcasing the Texas capital’s thriving music scene, live tunes ring through the concourse on Thursday evenings at Austin-Bergstrom International (www.abia.org).

WORKOUTS IN VEGAS. Relieve slots-induced stress at McCarran International’s 24 Hour Fitness club (702-261-3971). A day pass costs $15; $30 also gets you outfitted in shirt, shorts, socks, and shoes.

SUSHI IN SAN FRANCISCO. Sibling to the popular Inner Sunset eatery, Ebisu in the International Terminal Food Court (www.flysfo.com) serves up a bite of the city’s creative Japanese fare. —
