  1. SIA Special livery! i thought they will never do it again after Flight 006 crash.. happy to see this one 😀

  2. Would like to see Air India A380 with special livery.
    Rather than ordering 27 787, 23 777, & later canceling 7 aircraft of 787, AI should have purchased atleast couple of A380 instead of cheap B787, even if it meant seating only in 2 class configuration to cut down cost by flying more passengers.

  3. Gorgeous plane! I have flown on the A380, in both Economy and Business. Both very good! Here is the review in Business class on the A380. https://youtu.be/r9ocU6H2bWc
