Chitchat SIA FLIGHTS TO NOWHERE.

[3_M]

Senai can only accept b737 types only 8 think. Nothing bigger.

I ever seen a Russian AN124 taking off from senai. Used full runway.

Read somewhere that the pricing at about $288 seems expensive. Nothing to do inside the round trip. I total about 200, you can go KL, JKT, BKK liao

Since SIA got so many planes idle and they want to earn income....they can volunteer some for training our commandos & SPF special forces to practice anti-hijacking tactics in the event terrorists hijack SIA for ransom. SIA can charge SAF & SPF a fee.

Public can also pay a small fee to be passengers for this practice but the terrorists must be m&ds with suicide vests provided by MUIS.

Can also blow up a few old Airbus 330 to make it more real....

A trained pilot can simulate a crash landing or turbulent flight, let the passengers feel the G-force. At least make them feel like they got their money's worth, like from a roller coaster ride.

Qantas flight to nowhere sells out in 10 minutes

Would you pay $800 (or more) for a flight to nowhere?
More than 130 people in Australia have.
And Qantas believes it's one of the fastest-selling flights it's ever put on.
The airline, which has bled almost $2 billion since the pandemic began, will run a "Great Southern Land" joy flight which will depart and arrive in Sydney.
Passengers have been promised great views of Australian icons like the Great Barrier Reef and Uluru, which are off limits to many people due to border closures.
"From the sky, there are no border restrictions," the advertisement says.
There's no need for baggage on the seven-hour flight with no stopovers, but passengers have been told they'll also see Kata Tjuta, Byron Bay, Bondi Beach and Sydney Harbour.
Qantas says the plane will fly as low as 4,000 feet to get passengers as close as possible to these landmarks.

Economy tickets were priced at $787, premium economy at $1,787 and business class was $3,787 but still the flight sold out in under 10 minutes on Thursday.
"We knew this flight would be popular, but we didn't expect it to sell out in 10 minutes," a Qantas spokesperson said.
"People clearly miss travel and the experience of flying."
Captain David Summergreene will pilot the flight on October 10 and said he was "super stoked" to be flying again after months out of the cockpit.
"This is taking me back to the days when I learnt to fly and we were down in light aircraft very low flying around things," he said.
"To be able to take an aircraft like this and do the same thing ... will be absolutely fantastic."
Airlines look for creative stimulus
Over the last month Qantas CEO Alan Joyce has been vocal in his opposition to blanket state border closures and accused leaders of being driven by politics and not health advice.
Mr Joyce has made pointed comments directed at the Premiers of Tasmania and Queensland who have said their state's borders were unlikely to open until December or after Christmas.
Qantas says demand for domestic travel is high and last week the airline started a petition calling on state leaders to ease domestic travel restrictions or risk a lot of business failures.
The petition has already been signed by 40,000 people ahead of Friday's National Cabinet meeting which will discuss the definition of "hotspot" for the purpose of border closures.

The flight will conclude with an afternoon flyover of iconic Sydney Harbour.(ABC News: Graeme Powell)
Mr Joyce said the "Great Southern Land" flight was a small lifeline at this time.
"This flight ... means work for our people, who are more enthusiastic than anyone to see aircraft back in the sky," he said.
Qantas has not ruled out organising more scenic flights, an initiative taken up by airlines in Asian countries also desperate to keep pilots working.
Taiwan airline EVA recently organised a Father's Day scenic flight over the country and Japanese airline ANA took passengers on a 90-minute 'Hawaiian themed' flight last month.
Singapore Airlines is now considering "flights to nowhere" to and from Changi Airport.
Mr Joyce said considering the demand for this new kind of travel Qantas will "definitely" look at scheduling more scenic flights.

@sweetiepie

That so fierce Enchik.
Is he yr Unker?

 

[JOKERCHEW]

aust very big got so many cities and airports they can fly domestic

U can fly to Sentosa or
Horsburgh Lighthouse..

Vely Song u know.
Pls rmb book Windows seat hor.

 

[parrardee]

Ask Gin to open her legs and the planes can fly in there and also do 3 point turn. After coming out then got to disinfect.

 

[nightsafari]

Like that no chance to try Tantric at

35,000 feet in the sky...

apologies. late to the party.

3 hours how to tantric??? Need half day or full day at least lor...

right @zhihau?

 

[nightsafari]

S

Should be. As all flights go through immigration.
Michelin star food served on board? Free flow of booze?

flight to nowhere got immigration still? you still in pilot mode issit?

 

[nightsafari]

Hmmm...

Maybe can bring mei mei go inside
"Small Space" toilet to
"you know, I know"

@zhihau

Tantric sex can in Small Space?

3 hrs enuff time?

sorry. late to the party.

3 hour flight to nowhere is asinine. cruise to nowhere is still fine because the point of a crew is to become a vegetable and enjoy the experience of cruising. Air travel is hardly enjoyable and you put up with it for the sake of getting to the destination posthaste.

The Qantas version has some semblance of a point because of the landmark flypast. Singapore flypast what? Raffles City? Bukit Timah? Tak pakei. Not enough liao to justify paying for it.

 

[nightsafari]

The planes need to take off regardless as pilots needs minimum hours to maintain their license. Hence you are subsidizing their flights.

are you another pilot?

 

[knnccb]

U can fly to Sentosa or
