The A380 Suite: ultimate luxury, but no sex

The Airbus 380 has recently started operations on its first commercial service with Singapore Airlines. Among the luxury offered on board the super-jumbo, the Singapore Airlines Suite stands out with its unique full-size bed and 24-hour room-service included.

There are many activities you may enjoy in the new suites, however, SIA officials said sex is not one of them. The airline has announced that if they find a couple ‘involved in an inappropriate activity’ onboard the A380, they will be kindly asked to stop doing that. The first couple to book one of the double suites wasn’t too impressed with the airline’s prudish demeanour.

"So they'll sell you a double bed, and give you privacy and endless champagne – and then say you can't do what comes naturally?" asked Tony Elwood, a 76-year-old passenger who booked the suite with his wife, Julie.

First commercial A380 flight set for October 25

The first commercial flight on the new Airbus A380 aircraft has been scheduled for October 25, 2007. The first carrier to fly the super-jumbo will be Singapore Airlines. Flight SQ380 will depart Singapore for Sydney and it will seat 471 passengers in three classes. The airline’s first of 19 ordered A380s is starting services 10 days after it takes delivery. So far, as much as fourteen airlines, including Emirates, Qatar Airways, Virgin, Air France and Qantas, have ordered 173 A380 aircrafts in total.
