The New Paper


Most of us may not get a chance to experience one of these $10,000 flights. So come aboard with The New Paper as we take you into this exclusive world.

Slide open the doors and make your way to your plush leather seat, upholstered by the world-renowned Poltrona Frau.

And when it's time to turn in, your stewardess will transform your suite into a lavish bedroom, complete with a stand-alone full-sized - 69cm by 198cm - flat bed.

The suite also transforms into a fully-functional office, complete with a chaise lounge for a companion, ambient lighting, luggage storage space and a coat closet

A wide, adjustable table functions as a workstation, or large dining table.

Those with laptops can tap into the in-seat power supply, while customers with just a thumbdrive can simply plug in to the USB ports.

Select your entertainment from 100movies and more than 180 TV programmes on a 23-inch personal high-resolution widescreen LCD. If music is your thing, the library of 700CDs is sure to satisfy.

Sumptuous inflight gourmet offerings include a wide choice of meals, exclusively designed by top chefs such as Briton Gordon Ramsay, French Georges Blanc, Matt Moran from Australia and Singapore's Sam Leong.
And you won't see a fleck of aluminium foil here.

Only fine bone chinaware is used, alongside full-sized glassware and silverware, designed by French fashion house Givenchy.
