Whilst the interior on the main deck, which we were on, is nearly the same as the Boeing 777 (3; 4; 3; seat arrangement) which we travelled down on on both legs of of journey to Oz, we noticed differences straight away. For one it&#8217;s incredibly quiet when compared with the Boeings. On take off it hardly felt the engines were on let alone being pushed to maximum capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Another major difference, although one we didn&#8217;t see being in <del>&#8220;Cattle class&#8221;<\/del> economy class, is the existence of suites \u2026 yes suites! In 1st class on the A380, for Singapore Air at least, you can have a suite. A suite is effectively your own enclosed cabin containing video screen entertainment,  a recliner seat AND a separate full flat bed and mattress. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202616.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202616-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202635.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202635-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202654.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202654-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202707.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202707-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202725.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-202725-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-213527.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-213527-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" style=\"margin:4px;\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-213633.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/showmethecode.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/20120325-213633-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"20120325-213633.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well we&#8217;re on our way home.
