Bathrooms - Flying High

Bathrooms are necessary in every home - places where we refresh, relax and get ready for each new day. But there are times when having access to bathrooms simply isn't possible - and one of those places must be 40,000 feet up. But now it's possible to take a shower if you're a first class passenger on the new super jumbos that fly long-distance.

Bathrooms: The Height of On-board Luxury

Anyone who has flown economy will know what the state of the bathrooms usually are - tiny cabins that squeeze in a tiny, metallic toilet, minuscule sink and a rather scary powerful suction flush. Space is compromised, and using bathrooms on flights tends to be an unpleasant affair, not least because the idea of using the toilet 43,000 feet in the sky can leave you with a touch of vertigo.

Bathrooms - Showering at 40,000 Feet

But new levels of luxury have been introduced to airline bathrooms - for those that can afford it. The super jumbo's bathrooms feature water temperature and time control, and rather than a compact washbasin, the bathrooms feature a sink, changing area and vanity unit. Bathrooms are the height of luxury when space is at a premium, but the jets feature two fully equipped bathrooms in the first class section of the plane, complete with shower spa.

Luxury Bathrooms, Mini-Bars and LCD TVs

But unless you're occupying one of the 14 first-class suites, the economy class passengers will have to make do with the port-a-loo style bathrooms until they reach their homes or hotels. In fact, if there's one thing that makes you appreciate your bathrooms at home, it's a long-distance flight! As well as the super jumbos featuring luxury bathrooms, the design of the interior was done with help from the famous designer, Jack Pierre Jean. The first class cabins take the entire upper deck of the jet, featuring mini bar and work desks and state-of-the-art communication and entertainment systems, including a 23-inch LCD TV. For business class passengers, they may not have the luxury bathrooms but they do have lie-flat beds, mini bars and 17-inch LCD screens. For those first-class and business passengers who want to take a stroll, they can go and hang out in the lounge, with its fully stocked bar and 42-inch LCD screen to watch the views from the craft on TV.
