Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2005 Hey guys..well everyone is excited bout the introduction of MH's A380 next yr..(thats if Airbus doesnt delay it anymore!!)...well we can be expecting the plane to touch down in MH's colors at KUL around Nov 2006. So, in aniticipation of that, MAS has started and i think almost completed the plans for the aircraft like the interior layout, the number of crew, no. of pax, routes and sectors, services on board, entertainment and etc.....So far, according to my dad, he has been told that there would be 26 cabin crew on board the plane, 4 tech crew as and when needed, 4 cabin classes (FC, GCC, Premium EY & EY). We obviously also know the routes would be kangaroo routes, a couple of EU destinations and so on. Now, I was just wondering, does anyone here have any other information bout how our very own A380 would be like? Any info is very much appreciated and i am sure we can all benefit from knowing it as all of us are anxiously waiting for the grand arrival of the aircraft. Thanx guys!

Gavin Andrew David 6 Report post Posted August 1, 2005 hopefully all A380 will have its own livery . i dont want them change their livery . existing livery looks so good on the 744 and 777 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie H 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2005 well.....its interesting to note that MH is going all french for their A380 interiors......firstly, they shunned matsushita/panasonic (the current supplier of IFE for their experience redefined programme) and instead opted for Thales' latest IFE system....and now apparently, they are in talks with EADS-SOGERMA, a french based company, on the development of an all new first class cabin, very very different and supposedly way more luxurious than the ones on 9M-MPD, MPB etc which are supplied by BE Aerospace... im well excited of the end product and will certainly look forward to the different offerings of SQ, QF, EK, MH etc come 2006 onwards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2005 Thats great idea by MH..i think pax are gonna choose to fly on an A380 which truly redefines air travel therefore they have to make sure our 380 is the best of the best if they wanna get a good chunk of the market..any idea what would the cabin be like?> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken K. Kour 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2005 I agree that MH should have a new Livery for the A380 fleet, or even better, perhaps paint each A380 individually? wouldnt that be great for us spotters? No need for each to be different, but different shades of colours etc would do just fine i believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandeep G 1 Report post Posted August 24, 2005 I think an MH A380 would look simply stunning in the present Batik motif seen on the female uniforms! That would be special and unique! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken K. Kour 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2005 As long as they dont do anything remotely connected to the current male uniforms... then ill be happy with it... if they do something in that plad green colour... i might just cringe when i see it.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imran K. 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2005 You're just kidding right ? 5956[/snapback] That would look quite cool..but it would resemble CX's "Asia World City" 744... EK have confirmed that an ENTIRE A380 will be painted in a special colour scheme which bears a striking resemblance to their tail designs...with a touch of gold..

Y. J. Foo 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2005 Maybe MAS should do something like BA's World Tails- that'd be fabulous!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2005 MH should do something uniquely different...red has always resembled us well....and there shld be a dominance of red...yet introduction of a major part of blue..maybe a lil black..and GOLD..we havent seen MH in gold cs yet...tht would look great..

Isaac 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2005 I personally prefer their new livery (if they introduce it one day) will be a combination of Red (darker one, not maroon however), dark blue & dark silver. And please keep the stunning logo (wau), a revise logo would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavin Andrew David 6 Report post Posted August 28, 2005 need to take into account the weight of the paint... as it is losing money already even tht small amount of weoght could cost them lots in the long run Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
