Common questions

Where can I shower right after landing?

At the airport (JFK lounges from ~$47, or a TWA Hotel day room), or head into the city and use a spa day pass or day-use room until your hotel check-in opens.

Hotel check-in is 3pm — any way to shower earlier?

Yes: a day-use room or spa pass gets you a shower immediately without waiting for standard check-in, and lets you store your bags too.
