Hello, I have a long lay-over on the 12th of February, and I might need to attend an online meeting. This means that I'll have to listen carefully to my colleagues and also be able to speak loud enough for them to hear me. I wouldn't want to disturb other passenger resting or enjoying their time in the lounge. Are there any sound proof work booths- work spaces with solid wi-fi connections in any of the lounges? Thank you very much in advance Eleni
