For vacation travel, time just wouldn't seem to be that crucial.
One would think most business travelers book flights so they arrive at the destination, check-in at hotel, shower, and then meet with clients.
Think about how far the UAE is from either sources or destinations...
Not a lot of 1 hour SF to LA style hops from Dubai...
Flight time from USA is 15 to 18 hours.
That’s a whole day when you include getting to airport 2-3 hours early for international flights.
Taking a shower, shaving and coming off the plane with freshly pressed attire, you’ll be refreshed, snappy and ready for business.
The shower is a real time saver, as you won’t have to go to a hotel before doing anything.
Shower is totally worth it.
I fly on friends private jet and on a few flights there was a full shower....which I absolutely “had to use”...
Then I grab a bag, wipe out the bar and grab decks of playing cards....
Sometimes I take the little tins of macadamia nuts or mixed nuts from “Dean and Delluca”....
The shower is for after other activities in the bedroom...
