Richard Branson's Virgin Atlantic Airways Ltd. plans to fit its A380 superjumbos with private rooms, showers and roulette tables, the billionaire said.
''It's surprising how little people have done,'' the Virgin Group chairman said in Paris yesterday. ''We will have bars, showers and, in countries where we're allowed to, roulette and blackjack. We'll certainly have double beds, private rooms, masseuses and manicurists.''
Virgin has said it will deploy the superjumbos on routes from London to Los Angeles, Tokyo, Johannesburg, Sydney and New York's John F. Kennedy airport.
''We're trying to give Airbus a bit of a push to stretch the plane and make them a bit bigger,'' Branson said.
