Queen of the Sky - A380


This A380 is a beauty. Come 28 Oct 2007, Singapore Airlines will be the first in the world to fly this plane, hailed as the largest passenger plane in the world. In market analysis, this is usually seen as a great opportunity for airlines to promote their brand by being the first to market. No doubt SQ will be taking the chance to go big on publicity. Singapore, small in size but big in visibility. Be prepared to see news flashes of the event worldwide. The interior is also attractive. Just see the pictures, taken from Singapore Airlines.
PRIVATE SUITES

Just like the train cabins

A place to lie down flat. I like this.


A Mirror to see whether one can slow down aging by flying luxuriously



This is lovely. Very romantic setting.

Then there are the business class seats.
BUSINESS CLASS

This is really comfortable.

I like the lighting

Book lovers will love this posture

See the large LCD screens?

Now for the rest of us.
ECONOMY CLASS

After seeing the luxurious cabins, these look very rudimentary.


There is a big difference between first class private suites and the economy seats. Point is, if you want the goodies, be prepared to pay.

Ha Ha. That's funny. Don't ask me as I have no idea about those details.

Nice try.
