SINGAPORE AIRLINES UNVEILS $1.2 BILLION UPGRADE

Today Singapore Airlines unveiled its $1.2 billion upgrade of its A380s. The upgrade will feature new first-class suites complete with luxurious double bed and furnishings. The new fleet will enter the Singapore-Sydney route next month just in time for Christmas. Singapore Airlines will also retrofit 14 existing aircraft to ensure the airline has consistency across the entire fleet.

The Suites will have exclusivity and privacy with the six suites being found in the front cabin on the upper deck of the aircraft. Thoughtfully designed each suite is meant to be an oasis complete with an adjustable full-flat bed and a plush leather chair.  The beds can also be stowed away completely revealing even more space within the suite. Each suite features a full-sized personal wardrobe, a 32-inch full HD monitor, amenity box lined with soft leather, a handbag stowage compartment, specially designed carpet and access to two stylish lavatories, one of which feature a full sit-down vanity.

The upgraded fleet will have a total of 471 seats with those being broken up into six suites, 78 business class seats, 44 premium economy seats and 343 economy seats.
