I have been reading the comments on the Flyertalk site for some time and found a lot of useful information - so thanks for all that - but it's taken me a while to make my first post.

I am travelling to SFO next week and have a meeting right off the plane. Is it possible to use the showers in the clubhouse on arrival or just on departure? I probably won't have time to get to the hotel beforehand, and don't want their lasting impression of me to be a smelly Ulsterman!

Thanks!

Also, can someone tell me waht the qualifications for becoming a V50 are? I notice that not even the well travelled Mr Mannion or TBS are at this level yet.
