Hi, I see it is almost a year since this thread was last updated. We are flying AY J JFK-HEL, then flying HEL-ZRH also in J...but considering taking that leg the next morning to allow us a day to visit Helsinki.

Taking a shower upon arrival would make this a much more doable option. We are both US citizens, in case that makes a difference. Besides using the lounge, is there a recommended airport hotel that might allow an early morning check-in?

Thank you!
