Having had a little rant about the dearth of spas or spa treatments at airports – places we have all the time in the world with very little to do except buy stuff we don’t really want, I was thrilled to see a huge on at Dubai airport yesterday. Oh woe, alas, alack – it might be a lovely spa – huge, airy and spacious but the treatments are sooo expensive…a minimum of 25 minutes for $50. And you only have access to it if you’re travelling business or first. Although you could have your nails polished for $9 – only polished mind you. It makes both BA and Virgin seem like the milk of human kindness.
For anybody following this…let me assure you it is not I who will running the London Marathon but my half demented partner Sara P who already has problems with her knees…I will be celebrating her taking to the road…with just another massage…
