Right, so methinks this may be the defining F cabin. Will have to give it a go...

Looks very special indeed. Even Business Class looks huge.

Shame it the interior picture were done with a fish-eye lens as they badly distorted.

Saw that. Same the guy in the pictures could not buy some jean of the proper length or a shirt that fits. :)

I am aspiring to it already....
Not that I've checked prices at all, but SIN - SYD return in April is about £7500 for two [:w]

Check out these quality photos of my A380 flight a few days ago. Photos taken with my new state-of-the-art Sony T-200 (made in Japan).

Great photos Strawb - the 380 looks really elegant and well put together. I liked the shot of the main cabin too - you can see the space and width over a 747. I can't wait to experience it.

Does it feel odd sleeping at an angle in SQs biz beds?

Oooh, Strawb. Nice photo set. I really want to try the new products on the SQ A380.

Thanks,
Sarah

Christ on a bike - Pichon Lalande 82 and Penfold's Grange 90 as well. An eight hour flight is not enough.

I have a nasty suspicion this was a promo on the maiden flight.

Not really, I slept quite well for a couple of hours surprisingly. The flight itself was excellent, cabin crew a delight as always. I decided to skip the main dinner service and only had dessert once onboard as I was not hungry. During the night I munched away on chocolate truffles from the self-service bar. In the morning there were croissants, bread rolls and danish pastries together with fresh fruit for breakfast. I only had the fresh fruit (pastries for picture purposes only).
