The sensory rooms, in SLC's words

“The dedicated spaces are designed by medical professionals for individuals who may need a quiet environment. The sensory rooms are designed with bean bags, visual light panels, activity panels and air walls.”

A Sunflower lanyard, wristband or pin is “a subtle way of letting others know that the wearer may require additional support, assistance or a bit more time to navigate the airport.”

  • With three rooms across both concourses, check which concourse your gate is in and plan for the room on that side.
  • The airport says the rooms are only for people with sensory challenges, not for other uses.
