Emirates to introduce shisha lounges onboard A380 fleet

[ARNSpoty]

I am not sure how many of you has followed the "latest decision" on Emirates Airlines introducing a Shisha lounge onboard their A380 aircraft.....and yes I do know that this is satire article from "The Pan-Arabia Enquire", but it's just too funny to see some of the reactions to this, thus the comments to this article.

Hence, multiple news websites such as "Breaking Travel News" have actually fallen for this, and has posted the article on their website. I mean, common people? :rolleyes:

Are we expected to know what a "shisha lounge" is?

I for one have never heard the expression and I expect that 95% of the population would be in the same boat. It isn't even explained in the link as far as I can see.

It's either a kebab lounge or a hubbly bubbly pipe smoking lounge my monies on the former!

Shish = Hashish?

Reintroducing smoking on aeroplanes? Sounds like a seriously retrograde step to me. What a screwed-up idea!

No, not hashish. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shisha)
