Tony and Julie Elwood booked the first A380 double suite but the journalists clamouring to see inside their room prevented them from beating the sex ban Steve Bleach
The A380 may have the world’s first airborne double bed, but it won’t be put to the obvious use if Singapore Airlines has its way: “If couples used our double beds to engage in inappropriate activity, we would politely ask them to desist,” said the company’s Stephen Forshaw.
“There are things that are acceptable on an aircraft and things that aren’t, and the rules for behaviour in our double beds are the same ones that apply throughout the aircraft.”
In any case, the plane is as yet unchristened: Tony and Julie Elwood from Perth, Australia had booked the first A380 double suite, but hardly had a moment of privacy for a romantic kiss, let alone anything raunchier, as a parade of journalists came knocking on their door.
Even so, they weren’t too impressed with Singapore’s strait-laced attitude. “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?” asked Tony, a vigorous 76. “Seems a bit strange.”
“They seem to have done everything they can to make it romantic, short of bringing round oysters,” said Julie, 51. “I’d say they shouldn’t really complain, should they?
"Though I don’t think they’ll have anything to worry about from us — the flight is so busy with people coming to see the suites, we wouldn’t have the opportunity.”
At exactly what age do you believe adults should refrain from having sexual relations with the opposite sex?

He/she is 22. That’s parent age thinking and normal:’)
This is, after all, Singapore Airlines. They might have to beat you with a cane if they catch you.
I was thinking the same thing, but decided against posting it.
What do you have against his member??
I mean the older members of Free Republic.
I’m not saying anybody should refrain, I’m just saying I think it’s gross to have sex when you’re an elderly person.
In the good 'ol days 'Safe Sex’ meant a padded headboard!
You need to quit watching porn. Let old folks do in private what is none of your business.
In all fairness, there are plenty of younger people who would gross me out at the thought of them having sex. For example: Rosie O'Donuts.
Mile High Club! Its the ultimate place to um... do the horizontal mambo! ;-)
