1.
The Airbus A380 is the largest passenger airliner in the world. Singapore Airlines launched their use of the Airbus A380 in 2007, and in 2014, Etihad Airways launched theirs. -
2.
Let's take a tour of an Airbus A380 used by Etihad Airways. -
3.
Welcome aboard! As you can seem there are two floors. Those with economy, business, and first class tickets will be on the first floor while the top floor is reserved for The Residence ticket holders only. -
4.
Economy Class Seating The Economy Class is beautifully designed and spacious. The interior is desert colored themed, which inspires a sophisticated and calming mood. -
5.
Each seat is provided with an LCD TV to get through passengers through the long flight. -
6.
Business Class Seating If you've secured a Business Class ticket, you're offered onboard café service, a boutique wine list, and award-winning cuisine. -
7.
There are also partitions for privacy and the option to convert your chair into a bed for maximum comfort. -
8.
The space is organized so that every seat has direct aisle access and convenient storage space. -
9.
Business Class - A Hotel-Inspired Lobby Etihad Airways looked at boutique hotels for inspiration when designing The lobby. You can relax with a private group or socialize with other guests. -
10.
It's also perfect for business meetings or watching a sporting event. -
11.
Here are a few of the essentials you'll receive on the flight. These are similar to what you'd receive on any other flight: socks, earplugs, combs, and more. -
12.
The First Class Experience If you've got a first class ticket, you can opt for a First Apartment or a First Suite. The privacy was described by one passenger as "phenomenal." -
13.
While the First Suite comes with a seat that converts into a bed, the First Apartment comes with an upholstered section with Italian luxury leather, a wide armchair, and a separate couch that converts into a bed. -
14.
Enjoy the comfort of complimentary loungewear and stow away your clothing in a full-length wardrobe. -
15.
You are also given a widescreen TV with both options. Sliding doors are provided for added privacy. -
16.
If you'd like, you can take down the partition to chat with your neighbor. -
17.
First Class restrooms offer the perfect mood. With quality lighting and luxurious toiletries, you won't be rushing back to your seat anytime soon. Next, check out the area that would cost you nearly $40,000. -
18.
What sets The Residence apart? First of all, you have 3 rooms all to yourself, or you can share it with a partner. Take a look at the rest of the amenities. -
19.
Here's a look at The Residence, or the 'Penthouse in the Sky.' The Residence was first introduced in late 2014 along with a revamping of all other ticket areas. -
20.
The Residence features a luxurious double bed. The 6-foot 10-inch double bed is covered with Italian bed linen. Entertainment is provided by a 27-inch flat-screen TV with noise cancelling headsets and you can request breakfast in bed (the chef can also cook up your favorite dish, whatever your heart desires). -
21.
Take your time in your ensuite shower room. You can unwind in your full-height shower. It even comes with bathrobes, a vanity unit, and hairdryer so you can look and feel fresh before stepping off the plane. -
22.
A behind-the-scenes look. Here's a glimpse of the cockpit on Airbus A380. -
23.
Step outside the cockpit and you'll find a bed and couch for the pilot. -
24.
What do you think? $38,000 is what some folks make in a year! Would you spend it on a luxurious one way flight? Considering the price tag, tell us which features impressed you and which ones you would improve.
