I think the "maiden" flight is tomorrow - Singapore to Sydney, then back on Friday.

People forget that when the 747 first came out it was advertised with bars, lounges and other 1st class amenities.  Didn't take the airlines long to realize they would make more money filling the space with seats.

I look for the same thing to happen with the A380.

I don't like the way airline captains dress.  They look more like steamboat captains than aircraft pilots.  I think the airlines should come up with a blue flightsuit, something that shows both functionality and professionalism.
