Singapore Airlines asks passengers to "please refrain from sex"

Jamie already covered the potential outcome of putting double beds on an airplane. But now Singapore airlines is directly addressing the situation as well.

The airline's new Airbus A380 flies with two double beds in First Class, which are made private by a screen. But the airline is hoping to quash any funny-business ideas travelers might get when booking a lover's package First Class bed. In a statement to Reuters, the airline said "All we ask of customers, wherever they are on our aircraft, is to observe standards that don't cause offense to other customers and crew." I'd say that statement is open to interpretation, wouldn't you?

A passenger on the inaugral flight argued, "So they'll sell you a double bed, and give you privacy and endless champagne and then say you can't do what comes naturally?" Still, the rooms aren't completely soundproof or sealed, so you've either got to have mad skills or enjoy the fact that you might get caught.

WOW! Thats hilarioussss

So what are the consequences if you actually don't refrain from sex in a first class double bed with a lovers package ticket? I reckon I can talk myself out of any fines if any if caught.

And I don't think I've had sex in a soundproof room anyway so that ain't an excuse to refrain from sex on a plane.

I can't wait too Virgin Airways buys one, 20 quid says they'll say "please don't refrain from sex".

I would not take that bet.

ha virgin airways= refrain from sex, good one daniel :P
i think thats a rather stupid ask, theres a bed, a double one, and champagne and you pa so much money, plus how would they catch you, if they hear you i doubt they will come in and stop it lol

Well for 7k or 14k per ticket, you'd want to make full use of it. Makes entry into the mile high club tad easier.

I think Branson would be the first to deflower Virgin's double bed.

hahahahhaha...im sure plenty of people are gonna take that request seriously :P

lol

LOL. lovely!

I'm from singapore, and I wouldnt be too surprised if they install security cameras to ensure that their passengers don't do anything that would make them raise a quizzical eyebrow.

Despite the government's efforts *coughcough* to loosen up, Singapore is still one of the most uptight societies that I know of. aside from India.
