  • Qantas Unveils A380 Cabin

    Qantas Airways of Australia has unveiled some photos of its A380 which recently finished a cabin outfitting in Hamburg, Germany.

    Pictures here.

    Click the above link to view the results.

    While Singapore Airlines Limited has offerred its passengers Travel In A New Light
    , Qantas seems to have Travel..... in a different kind of light.

    Qantas executive general manager John Borghetti, who was in Hamburg with his A380 project team to inspect and approve the interior fitout, said the finished product exceeded expectations.

    "And my expectations were pretty high," he said.

    You're funny.

    Hey, a least the Qantas A380 carpet is not as garish as SQ A380 in Y class.

      Hmm I prefer the red fabrics in whY that they currently have on the 744. Or the pinkish ones on the 763. The green looks pretty blah. I thought I saw red in whY and whY+ when they first released info on their A380 config though, but maybe not.

      I've got a LHR-MEL award ticketed for next Feb so fingers crossed that there's an outside chance of LHR-MEL via HKG switching over to the Big Fella by that stage....

        In terms of colours selections, SQ is much better than QF IMO.

          I won't mention names, but a die hard SQ Fanatic on this board mentioned this to me in MSN:

          Umm it's a new W
          Wider, 42" pitch
          It's quite good actually (but I didn't say that)
          and it has dedicated service, food, crew

          A bit shocking hearing it coming from him, so it must be good

            I know it is unfair to judge from only a few pictures but it looks like that QF is actually putting a lot more thoughts to its 380 cabin as a whole than SQ has.

            I actually like the entire color scheme including the green.... I am not sure but maybe it is the design of the seat that makes the difference.

            The F seats are very nice.

              Hmmm, 2-2-2 in J. Not a very inspiring first impression for me.

                I'd be most interested in checking out the onboard J lounge, haven't seen any pics so far.

                  KeithMEL,

                  The onboard lounge has been seen somewhere but I don't have it in my favourites or to hand.

                  You know where the big SQ toilet is on the A380J? instead of that, on the bulkhead is a plasma TV screen. Against the windows are very red sofas. Under the TV is a magazine rack.

                    Even the seats on the Charlie 130 seem more welcoming compared to the Y seats.

                        Ewww, the green seats look so military.
                        We put labels on people and fight wars over them. If we truly want harmony, we have to get past the labels.

                          The cup holder in F is a PITA to reach when in sleeping position. Have to struggle to reach for it don't you think? It would be easy if one had a trunk of an elephant or arms of a chimp

                            Looks like the interior of the C-5 Galaxy
