Tuesday 18th March 2008 marks a date where history is made. The first ever A380 commercial flight into Europe landed at Heathrow at 15:05. The A380, or "super jumbo" stands at over 24 metres high — about the same as your average 8 storey building. It's also the first ever double-decker plane and can seat more than 470 people in 12 exclusive Singapore Airlines Suites on the main deck, 60 Business Class seats on the upper deck and 399 economy seats on both decks.

  • Singapore Airlines is the best in the world.

  • it will take years for EK to reach the same status of SIA. EK is growing to fast and this will eventually be thier downfall. Great service and world reknown repuation takes centuries to build. No doubt EK is a great airline, not as great as SIA IMO

  • i got one of the gift sets from this flight, it came with a lock, a model, rolls royce pens,

    and some other stuff

  • @sfotpe no way!! emirates suites are unbelievable!! i recently flew to dubai with emirates and couldnt believe the amount of comfort and space i had, along with the entertainment and amazing hospitality from the crew

  • EK is an accident waiting to happen. It is the epitome of management taking piloting decisions. The number of over-stressed pilots complaining about the ridiculous demands imposed on them is truly worrying.

  • BUt Emirates has a full Bar, Lounge and Showers. Also I know for a fact that the Emirates Suite is just as good as the SIA one.

  • Only Singapore, Qantas, Emirates, and Air France has it for now!... I just checked the tickets for the Singapore SkySuites: USD 8,000 for a roundtrip ticket from Singapore to Melbourne! It's crazy!...

    Go Singapore! Wooohooo! Yeah!

  • im dying for flying in singapore airlines a380 to heathrow!!!!!

  • first flight to death-row
