• I think it is safe to conclude that this project has been a successful recruitment drive by the KrisFlyer marketing  team.  

  • Well spotted Patrickk; you beat me to it.  What a great idea - wind turbines should be installed to line every runway in the country !  Sadly, the 10MP layout drawing on the  WSI website shows them to be located in the "Glide Path Critical Area".

  • Agree with Bernoulli's comment on the timing of the replacement plan.  VH's quotes in the article almost acknowledges that the timing is all wrong.  i.e. putting the call out in the second half, which sounds like a seller's market.  Perhaps it is all smoke and mirrors and they have...

  • Suggestion:  Please change the headline: "Singapore Airlines unlocks free WiFi for all passengers".  It appears to only  be the case for KF pax.

  • Risky move for QF.  Leasing in an inferior  product to your own product highlights your superiority.  Leasing in a much better product highlights your shortfalls.
