How do Emirates showers work?

There are shower attendants assigned to keeping the showers clean and ready for guests, to ensure the maximum number of passengers can enjoy their time in the spa. Each shower booking gets around five minutes of hot water, although the passengers are welcome to use the bathroom for approximately 30 minutes.
