YYZ MLL (Domestic) T1 shower
Hi There,

I am taking the red-eye next week from YEG-YYZ. Is there an arrivals lounge where I can shower and maybe press a suit so I don't need to dress in my suit to sleep?

I have taken the redeye before but always booked 11am start for meetings. I am delta P+ and I can usually check in at 8-30 so I can shower and change before heading out, but I have an 8AM meeting this time that I cannot re-arrange.

Thanks,
D.

With your E75 and I gather an AC flight from YEG to YYZ you will have no problem getting in.

I'm not worried about getting in. I am just wondering if there are showers and an iron in the T1 MLL.

I've taken the YEG-YYZ red eye several times and was able to make use of the YYZ shower facilities upon arrival. Depending on how busy it is you might have to wait (I usually haven't had to wait).

Not sure about an iron.

In the T1 domestic lounge? I never noticed showers there.

All YYZ lounges have showers.

Does it work also for *A Gold or does one have to have status with AC?

It depends...

If you are connecting in YYZ and want to use the MLL shower, then you can use the shower/lounge as you are entitled to access as a departing pax on the connecting flight.

If you are terminating in YYZ then you must be an AC Altitude member to use the MLL as an arrivals lounge.

As mentioned by other posters all MLL in YYZ have showers. The domestic ones are located in the back near the BMW TV room.

I don't believe they have an iron (fire hazard), however I have found de wrinkle spray (that you can buy at the grocery store) to be pretty good for de wrinkling clothes when I travel.

Failing that, leave your suit in the shower room while you shower. That should get rid of any serious wrinkles.

Yes you can shower - you should rush from your flight to the MLL and immediately ask the front desk for a shower as there will likely be a wait list, sometimes of 30-50 minutes!! So it's imperative that you're first from your flight.

I'm doing a domestic red-eye to YYZ in October, and need to shower in the am when I arrive at 0530 before a conference.

As a SE100k, can I access the MLL on arrival to shower?

Are the showers generally well-kept and clean, or gross?

The last time I used a YYZ lounge on a connection, many years ago, it was clean. No recent experience though.

As long as they give you a room that's actually been cleaned and has a fresh towel, they're clean.

I prefer the MLL showers to my own bathroom
