Size Matters for Lovers on New Jumbo Jet

In the competitive world of air transportation, Singapore Airlines has jumped ahead as the first to add the new Airbus A380, the world’s biggest jumbo jet. The plane, among other things, boasts 12 first-class suites complete with double beds. Comfortable? Yes, but perhaps a little too comfortable for Singapore Airlines who is now asking customers to refrain from using the beds to join the mile high club. The cabins are private, but are not sealed or sound proof. Could be live entertainment for some, a triple-X nuisance for others. “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?” Tony Elwood, who traveled with wife Julie in a suite aboard the inaugural flight, told the Times of London. And who said men don’t understand foreplay.

I can’t help thinking that Singapore Airlines doth protest too much.

I’ve flown on many airlines throughout the past 15 years and in almost all circumstances you are advised to remain in your seats with your “seat belt fastened”.
I now find it quite amusing to learn there are now beds on these mega planes. …… I was just wondering is there are also huge belts to strap yourself in while having a snooze.
Yes, the question remains …. what are these double beds actually for? If you’ve just paid who-knows how many thousands of dollars for the suite with a double bed, I’m sure the last thing on your mind is sleep
