Hi,

First post here, so be gentle!

Although I haven't availed of the following service myself it may be of interest to those who want a VIP arrival/departure service:

They do provide a shower room although their facilities/service obviously come at a premium - €200 for a return journey. Apart from the shower facilities, they take your bags, check you in, personal pre-board security check etc.

If it's just a shower that is required, I believe the Clarion are offering overnight rates from €89 - in fact there seems to be a 'rate war' between the airport hotels at the moment due to the new Bewleys and Hilton - so this would be more economical?
