The VIP service looks great. I've done a quick review and it seems the F&B offering is broad and really good. The rooms look well appointed. My query on value is this: it's for a 5hr layover. Ideally I'll be sleeping, showering and eating and then heading back to the plane. It looks as though there is no outdoor area, nor any windows to outside. Is this correct? I have access to a couple lounges in the terminal and am fine if it takes a slightly longer amount of time and the food quality is slightly less too, to do it for 'free' than to fork over €920 for what I think will be the benefit of the car pick up and drop back.

is VAT chargeable, and if so, is this claimable? Supposedly international transport of passengers is 0% VAT rate. Given you don't enter the country, actually on transit, wonder why VAT would accrue?
