Quantas have revealed their new first class deck in their A380’s. This has to be the definition of luxury aeroplane.

The double-deck A380 is the world’s largest commercial aircraft flying today and Quantas have now made this the luxury aeroplane of choice.

The first class cabin oozes extravagance and high end design, with a futuristic slant. Some commentators have already labelled it the ‘Star Trek Enterprise cabin’.

I haven’t got a problem with that, in fact I’m tempted to get my Trekkie uniform out and live the dream.

The Quantas first class cabin was designed by Australian Marc Newson. The cabin houses 14 individual portioned mini suites, with customers comfort being the highest priority.

Lounge chairs that transform into sheepskin upholstered beds, personal entertainment systems and private desks make these suites rather special.

The entertainment system comes in the form of a touch screen LCD monitor with 1000 on demand films and TV shows.

With the communal areas, the theme of luxury aeroplane is continued; Leather couches, plants (in a plane?!!) and overhead lighting that is designed to mimic the stars in a night sky.

With Quantas’s help the A380, Airbus’ 21st century flagship, has been transformed into THE luxury aeroplane.

And I do not own a Trekkie uniform.
