Another airline to offer individual private suites to its first-class passengers is JAL (Japan Air Lines) who has created along with London-based James Park Associates the new “JAL Suite”. The first class compartments are now 20% more roomy.

Upholstered in grey leather, the seat’s shape is basically a bolted down traditional armchair with facing ottoman, above which is a 19-inch TV screen.

Passengers can enjoy the latest movies, music and games using JAL’s state-of-the-art audio-visual-on-demand (AVOD) in-flight entertainment system,” according to JAL.

On first glimpse, it may look futuristic but the very functionality of the suite is that offers elite privacy for the First Class traveler.

Elegantly designed S-shaped cabins, the integrated recliner turn the seat into a fully flat bed that offers a sound sleep to its passengers.

The iPod connectivity allows commuters to plug in there iPod and view the needful on the huge FC suites with large video monitor.

The sundae costs $3,333.33 and consists of a banana split made with syrups from three rare dessert wines, served with an ice cream spoon from the 1850s. If you give them a day’s notice, they’ll even have a cellist play while you eat it (1/3 of the price is being donated to a local land trust).

If its not expensive enough, then perhaps the $60,000 “World’s More Expensive Most Expensive Ice Cream Sundae” will pique your interest.
For $60,000 you can travel to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, where the Three Twins Ice Cream founder will handchurn a batch of ice cream using the glacial ice found at the summit.
The cost includes first class airfare to Tanzania, five-star accommodations, a guided climb, all the ice cream you can eat, and an organic T-shirt.
It should also be noted that a portion of the purchase will go to an African environmental nonprofit.

Fly to New York with Emirates this autumn and you’ll be able to take a hot shower in midair, but it will cost you more than £9,000 ($18,000) and give you a shocking carbon footprint.

The Dubai-based airline will become the first commercial airline in the world to offer showers at 37,000ft when it installs the facility in first-class cabins on its new Airbus A380s.

The service will initially be available on daily flights from Dubai to New York from October 1, but the carrier aims to offer it across the entire fleet of 50 A380s.

Emirates has yet to reveal details of its A380 first-class cabin, built by B/E Aerospace, but it is expected to exceed even the extravagance of Singapore Airlines’s front-end suites, with private cabins, double beds and “a finely crafted dining environment”.

The airline compares the experience to Dubai’s “seven-star” Burj Al Arab hotel, but the environmental campaign group Plane Stupid says mile-high showers are plain crazy.

The aircraft will carry an extra tonne of water to feed the first-class shower - a payload equivalent to 12 extra passengers and incurring a carbon cost of 48,455lb for every return flight.

“It’s symptomatic of who really benefits,” says Plane Stupid’s Robbie Gillett. “The richest 18% in this country take 54% of all flights. The government is telling us to take fewer flights, but the huge increase in air traffic is not due to ordinary people going on family holidays, but because of excessive flying by the moneyed classes. Is this the type of development the aviation industry really needs?”
