Surely it depends on how long you've been travelling as well.
I've only used the shower once but it came on my third flight in a row, with no opportunity to shower at any transit stop and over 24 hours since I'd left home. Before we were even in the air I'd booked the first slot.
EK must have many itineraries where this is the case.
