The A380 MegaClass? or MegaCrap?

I read an article today in BusinessWeek magazine, about the A380. (Business Week European Edition/Nov. 10 2003)

People are suggesting that the A380 will have Disco's, luxury bars, plasma screens to make people feel better, gyms, and possibly even private suites!

Thinner seats will increase the space between rows to 34-36 inches compared to the current 30-33 inches. Give me a break....How long to you think it will take the airline to realize,'hey we can add another 15 rows instead of the extra space!'.

Is an airline really going to give up 200 revenue passengers, inexchage for installing a half-a-million dollars of gym equipment and plasma screens?

Wait till a Charter Airline deciedes to pick one up.....you ever gone through customs and baggage claim with 850 other people from the same flight?!!?

Discos and lounges......
