Singapore Airlines Flight 380
A total of 455 passengers were on board the inaugural flight from Singapore to Sydney. The plane took off at 8 am Singapore time (+8 GMT), and departed from Gate F31 at Terminal 2 after a simple ribbon-cutting ceremony officiated by SIA chief executive Chew Choon Seng.[4]
The passengers enjoyed a party atmosphere on the flight. The passengers, who came from 35 different countries, were treated to champagne and caviar by the 30-strong crew. The plane carried two top chefs, one from Singapore and one from Sydney, who cooked up duck breast, lobster, wok-fried beef and noodles for the passengers.[5]
At the airport in Sydney, hundreds of airport staff and aviation enthusiasts lined the fences outside the airport in Sydney to watch the plane land and passengers disembark. Seven hours after departure, at 3 pm, the plane landed safely at the airport.
