New Luxury Jet offers suites with double beds!  email this discussion to a friend?

This particular plane will offer two suites, 60 business class and 399 economy class seats. "Each suite, enclosed by sliding doors, is fitted with a leather upholstered seat, a table, a 23-inch flat screen TV, laptop connections and a range of office software. A separate bed folds up into the wall. Two of the suites can be joined to provide double beds. On the upper deck, business class seats can turn into wide flat beds, while the economy class seats on both decks have more leg and knee room, the carrier says. Business class passengers also have a bar area." Very cool for the ultra rich...many paid several thousands of dollars for this first flight. The couple in one of the suites paid $50,000. It is good to know that the economy seats will have more leg and knee room! LOL

Those superjumbo planes can be configured nicely. I saw the new airbus plane that Singapore airlines bought. I think that is the one that some people took a ride on many did so for charity. They are very lavish. Must be nice. They can be configured to carry up to 800 passengers. On the other hand the plane is right now too big to land at most airports because the wingspan is so wide. Then you also have to think of the possibility of a terrible disaster with a plane like that. I think the 747 is just fine for me.

Wow! This sounds like wonderful news for the first class passengers. It will be very comfortable for them to relax in the private suite. Eating delightful food at the table, checking emails on the Internet connection and watching television will be possible activities. Even traveling business class with be delightful with a flat bed to sleep on very comfortably. If the business people get bored they can make news friends in the bar area. The economy passengers like me will probably feel jealous that all they have is more loge room. Which routes will the plane cover?

Hi estherlou! Wow, that is fantastic! Now I can travel very comfortably in business class in my dreams! LOL! How fortunate for the rich. But good thing though, the economy class has more leg and knee room. haha.. I can only afford economy and I usually check on the carrier who can give me the lowest price. haha.. Poor me! Take care and have a nice day.

Im not to fond of flying .The first flight i ever took was when we went to Hawaii,and when i finally got home i was shocked that i had took such a long flight never have flown before,but my family was insistant that i go.That was my first flight and i do hope it will be my last..I have been afraid of flying especially since we have had so much trouble with plane jacking.Its a fact that this plane you are speaking of is for the ultra Rich so it is not in my plans to ever see the inside of this plane..I like to keep my feet planted as far on the ground as possible....I do not believe i would go on this plane if i were rich,to me that would be a waste of money...

I've heard about those A380! I would love to fly in business class in one of those one day. I think airlines are trying to put glamour back into air travel. Years ago it was glamourous but now it's swapped over with cruise liners!

I've heard some airlines are planning on putting restaurants, gyms and shops on the super jumbo planes!

I am 5 feet tall, and, while I'm on the wide side, I can hardly be called tall.

I find the space in most airplanes cramped leg wise - and if *I* find it so, how much worse must it be for that 6 foot or taller guy I saw walk past me?

wow. Note to self: book flight for Christmas travel. Ha! Even if I had that kind of money, I'm not sure it is worth that much money for a flight?!? To think that there are people going hungry in our country and yet others can spend that much for a flight! Geeze our priorities are messed up!
