On October 15th, an amusement park in Tokyo, Japan, started offering a new kind of ticket: a package for people who are working outside the office. The idea is for visitors to have fun at local attractions, such as on the Ferris wheel, and carry out their day-to-day work. The park offers portable wireless Internet routers.

One of the goals is to increase the number of park visitors. Visits have dropped considerably because of the new coronavirus pandemic. The idea is for people to also take advantage of the space to get a break from their routines while working. It is also possible, for example, to use your computer while relaxing on sun loungers by the pool.
