Singapore Airlines Ltd is opening one of its Airbus SE A380 superjumbos as a temporary restaurant, joining a gaggle of other carriers trying out novel ways to raise cash while the coronavirus decimates air travel.
Diners can choose their cabin class where they will be served meals with two
alcoholic drinks and free flow of other beverages, the carrier said.
The plane, parked at Changi Airport, will be open on October 24 and October 25. A tour of the aircraft will be available before lunch and customers will be able to watch the inflight entertainment channels during their meal.
The carrier suffered a record $817 million net loss in the quarter through June and is laying off about 20% of its workforce.
