MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
If you have just won the lottery, or have more money than you know what do with, you may like to book a luxury suite on a Singapore A/L A380 next time you fly long haul. My thanks to Derek Malt for sending the following to me:
"Singapore Airlines is offering private luxury suites on its A380s, complete with a personal 23in television, luggage space and two large armchairs. The suite can be turned into a bedroom by adjusting the seats to lie them flat and create a double bed. Window blinds and sliding doors ensure a high level of privacy and customers travelling 'suite class' will have the services of a dedicated member of cabin crew. They will also benefit from special menus offering gourmet food and fine wines. Such a service does not come cheap, however: a round trip flight from New York to Singapore will cost around $15,750 (£10,160) per person".

The THY website is showing flights to Gatwick by a B739 on 19/6 & 3/7.
