Is this now the final version? What happens to the swoosh lines (or the ribbon) that wrap around the aft of the fuselage?
I can confirm that the last almost all-white picture is the final version. I've seen the plane in Hamburg (XFW) multiple times over the last weeks. During the first approach into HAM from the south (which goes just over XFW) I mistook it for a Finnair A380 ;-)
The aircraft is painted with the base design of Malaysia Airlines’ bright new livery. Airbus says additional features of the livery developed specially for the MAS A380 will be applied post-delivery.
'MAS will offer passengers 40 by 87 inches worth of comfort, but this come with a hefty price tag. A round trip ticket from Kuala Lumpur to London will apparently cost US$9,000 (S$11,495), according to Bloomberg.'
I've seen J prices in SQ similar to this for the London sector! Even a dummy booking now with SQ for flights in September comes up to S$9,500.
I don't see how an additional 5 inches width in the new MH's F seats can trump SQ suites with a separate bed made for sleeping. MH's F seats are just seats.
