DESIGNED by UK-based James Park Associates (JPA) and manufactured for Singapore Airlines by Koito of Japan, each spacious, leather-upholstered seat is 30-inches wide and reclines to a fully- flat bed so you get all the comforts of home - 30,000 feet in the air.
The seats are arranged four abreast (1-2-1) to ensure privacy as well as direct access to the aisle. SIA's in-flight entertainment KrisWorld and a 15.4-inch wide-screen LCD monitor provide ample entertainment, with 1,000 on-demand options.
And there's no need to worry about being parted from your iPod during a flight. You can connect an iPod or iPhone to KrisWorld to play music and videos on the in-flight entertainment system.
Add to that gastronomic delights designed by a panel of industry stalwarts such as British chef Gordon Ramsay and local Tung Lok Restaurants' Sam Leong, complemented by fine wines and champagnes with full restaurant-style table settings.
Chances are, you'll run the risk of not wanting to get off the plane when you finally land - no matter how exciting the destination.
