Hang your shirts up in the bathroom, put the shower on really hot briefly and turn it off, leave said shirts in the bathroom to steam and teh creases will come out.
Failing that buy some decent shirts from T.M Lewin ( who always have a sale on), Thomas Pink or Gieves and Hawkes, and as earlier suggested drop them off at the dry cleaners on Friday and pick up Monday.

My clothes are ironed on a Sunday and packed. They are hung up on arrival at the hotel and if the creases fall out, then they fall out. If they don't, then they don't.
I find people want me for my expertise and are not offended by my 'bag lady chic'I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
