Singapore Airlines asks passengers to "please refrain from sex"

ROSLAN RAHMANJamie 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.
