Emirates Airline Announces Shower Spas for the Discerning Traveler: God Would Get Envious!
Forget the flatbed seats, gourmet cuisine and flatscreen TV, the newest addition to the in-flight luxuries is in-flight showers! Yes, for the businessman who is constantly on the move this other home in the skies now offers a chance to freshen-up before dashing to an important business meeting. Emirates airline has just announced ‘shower spas’ facility for their first-class passengers in their new superjumbo A380 Airbus. The plane carries enough water to ensure that all 14 First Class passengers can have a decent five-minute soak. Each shower has been designed to accommodate just one person at a time. 'They are designed for single usage' said a spokesman so, no intrusion in your privacy. The other premium services include 14 flat-bed, massage-equipped 'Private Suites' which include remote controlled doors, a work desk, an electrically controlled mini-bar and the most advanced in-flight entertainment system.
Emirates President Tim Clark warned passengers could not spend too long relaxing under the jets of water.He said: 'The showers are regulated through a software programme that gives people a five-minute shower, which is ample in most cases.'A traffic light system would let passengers know how long they had left: 'If you're on amber and your hair's full of shampoo, you want to get moving.' The plane will have to take on board an additional 500kg of water, an increase of some 25 percent - adding to fuel. This new service will be functional between London Heathrow and Dubai from December 1 for a price of £4,737.
