Private Jet Card
Celebritiesâ and corporate executives jet set around the globe because they can afford to do so and because it saves a great deal of time.

Keep your Hands To Yourself On the Airbus A380
November 2, 2007
It would seem that the Airbus A380 doubledecker jumbo jet, with its 12 first-class cabins with double beds would be built for romantic activity but Singapore Airlines, the first operator of the new Airbus A380, is intent on banning the nookie. Reuters reports that the carrier will ask passengers to refrain from doing what might come naturally in this romantic setting. The cabins are not sound proofed and as you can see in the picture above, they are not completely sealed off. The airline does not want to cause offense to other customers or the crew. Considering how many people join the mile-high club under far less comfortable conditions, I wonder how big a deterrent a simple request is going to be. I suspect that as long as the participants are quiet and discreet, there will still be quite a bit of action taking place in those first-class suites.
Singapore Airlines, the first operator of the new Airbus A380, has dashed the hopes of sexual thrill-seekers planning to engage in amorous activity aboard the world’s biggest jumbo jet.
The carrier said it would ask passengers on the A380 to refrain from sex while ensconced in one of its 12 first-class suites, which boast the world’s first airborne double beds.
“All we ask of customers, wherever they are on our aircraft, is to observe standards that don’t cause offence to other customers and crew,” the company told Reuters in a statement.
“Nothing different applies for our Singapore Airlines Suites customers.”
While private, the double cabins are neither sound proofed nor completely sealed.
Singapore Airlines, the world’s second-largest airline by market value, started commercial flights of the double-decker A380 last week with a Singapore-Sydney service.
“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 travelled with wife Julie in a suite aboard the inaugural flight, told the Times of London.
“They seem to have done everything they can to make it romantic, short of bringing round oysters,” Julie said. “I’d say they shouldn’t really complain, should they?”
