eBay auction to be first to fly on new Airbus A380

Singapore Airlines will be operating the first commercial flight on the new double decker Airbus A380, and to mark the occasion they are auctioning off the seats on eBay for charity!

Linky!

I'm not particularly interested/affluent enough, but it will be interesting to see how much they sell for!

(any flash gits who are keen can pre-register Here!!)
