I always find it surprising that, despite just how many showers the LHR T5 arrivals lounge has, one still often has to wait for a shower. Still I'm grateful for it!

The PP arrivals lounge in SIN had pretty good food. Far better than the one at BOM, which is probably the least inspiring arrivals lounge I've been to. Both very strict on timing.

The Ibis does rooms by the hour and it's not that expensive. Shame there aren't any other arrivals lounges for sure.

I thought it was fine for both shower and food, but unlike the CX airside Flounges, it's not one I'd want to spend time at the airport especially for.
