While we all joke about buying a suites-class ticket on one of those insane airline offerings, some guy actually did it and wrote of his experience. We sure hope it was worth the $19,000.
Entrepreneur Derek Low was the crazy guy who splashed out on the ticket, which included multiple courses of lobster, a full-size bed, a “private room” for waiting pre-departure, Bose headphones, Givenchy pajamas and a Salvatore Ferragamo travel case full of amenities.
The Suites were exclusive to their flagship Airbus A380, and they go beyond flat beds by offering enclosed private cabins with sliding doors that cocoon you in your own little lap of luxury. The interior was designed by French luxury yacht designer Jean-Jacques Coste and comes along with a plush soft leather armchair hand-stitched by the Italian master craftsmen Poltrona Frau. Perhaps most well-known of all, Singapore Airlines became the first and only commercial airline with a double bed in the sky.
Zaf told me that there were only 3 passengers in the 12 Suites, and joked that I could have a bedroom, dining room and living room if I wanted.
