This may be a silly question (being a non-status person having just redeemed my Grand Slam points for travel in C), but are towels provided in the shower? What a wonderful way to be welcomed. At first I thought a 3 hour layover was a tad long, but this might work out quite nice for Mrs. dwcatty and me.
Follow the signs for the Exit after deplaning and go through passport control before going down to the arrivals level where the Welcome Lounge is located.
Yes, they provide towels and toileteries (shampoo, shower gel, etc.) in the Welcome Lounge. It opens at 5:30am so you and Mrs. dwcatty should be two of the first guests!
And skip breakfast on the plane!
