I have a longish layover in a week or so, before the 14:10 flight, travelling in Club. My travelling companion is booked on the AY departure around the same time. We're both Gold, so were looking forward to showers in the Plat Wing. That doesn't look feasible, and it would a pain if we couldn't even use the same lounge together, although I'm hoping to get into AY business lounge on the basis it's off peak hours, but who knows...
If you have a longish layover you can always use the Schengen zone AY lounge near gate 22 which has showers and both you and your companion can use. Just add 10mins onto the time you need to get to your gate to make it back up the terminal and through the auto-passport gates.
