Showers - Take to the Skies

Showers are increasingly becoming homeowner's most popular choice for their bathrooms and it looks as though this popularity might be stemming to the skies as a leading airline introduces the option of in-flight showers for their first class passengers. According to the report in the Telegraph , Emirates Airlines have installed on board showers on their new fleet of A380 Airbus planes that will allow their premium passengers to take showers at some 43,000 feet. The vast A380 Airbus are one of the world's largest commercial planes and the new Emirate fleet will include two bathrooms in their first class section, both of which will have showers for their passengers to utilise during the flight; which literally takes in flight hospitality to new heights.

Showers - Join the Mile High Club

The mile high club may soon have new connotations after Emirates Airlines installed showers on the A380 fleet and the term could soon refer to those who have had showers at altitude. According to the report in the Telegraph , however, those hoping for long, luxurious showers thousands of feet in the air are likely to be disappointed as the on-board showers are pre-fitted with a time restriction tool which will limit the passengers to a mere five minutes in the showers. Speaking to the Telegraph , Emirates president, Tim Clark, stated, "The showers are regulated through a software program that gives people a five-minute shower, which is ample in most cases. If you're on amber and your hair's full of shampoo, you want to get moving". The showers on board the A380's have created some problems for Emirates, however, as they have been striving to reduce the weight of the gargantuan people carriers and by adding the showers, each flight will need to carry an extra 500 kilos of water.

Showers - Surge in Popularity

It's not just aboard aircraft that showers are experiencing a resurgence. Many homeowners plan to renovate their bathrooms in what remains of 2008 and into 2009 and one of the key aspects to rejuvenate is that of shower enclosures. There are an absolute abundance of showers on the market and regardless of what size or style you are after, or indeed the dimensions of the room, you are sure to find a shower enclosure to suit your needs.
