    I know what you get...I was given it free once in economy...love the stretch out 1.55m comment.. your height is the key and the position you can actually sleep which you fail to mention...you have to be very short or able to curl into a ball to sleep as you will have no leg room with it fully set up. For someone that sleeps two thirds of any flight I found being over six foot it actually impossible to use...explains why they consider it as a product fail and not been able to on sell it...all the best. In the last couple of days did you consider Emirates 100th A380 sale - Premium seats were on at half price...that was the deal of the past week. They must have real surplus seats out of AKl currently..

    With you on that one. I am 187 cm tall and have had the Sky Couch twice now. (not paid for just by seat selection and not many ppl on flight). But its not long enough for me and I cannot sleep properly because my legs have to be curled and I need to stretch. So never would I pay for it. I was with my partner on the second leg and we did try and spoon. After 20 mins just gave up.. too uncomfortable not being about to move at all because no room. So went back to sitting. Its a good concept but probably works better on the smaller Asian audience.

    With the Korean problem. The whole oil delivery situation could change .

    Air's forward fuel contracts may come under pressure " Force majeure " . Maybe not..


    Disc. Not a holder..

    Seems that the divi which is due to go ex on the 7th (11cps) , has been the motivator behind the rising price since early August. Perhaps we will now see some exit strategies kick in as the rise has delivered roughly between 20c to 30c top-up for those people, a bit larger than the divi will deliver.

    So then a price fall to say 3.40 is on the cards, then slowly going back up or languishing at that level?
    I'm now in the position of needing to juggle funds. Sell air after divi, sell the dogpoop that is mpg and cut my losses, have a plan now you can - get a loan from gem finance. Ah but this is for another thread.

    And sky couch, my thin short frame is going to enjoy the free upgrade to London. I'll post pics.

    In my opinion is the positive FY18 outlook, (market is always looking forward) outlined by management at the results presentation and as signaled by the increased dividend, that's driven the SP to $3.60.
