When SQ had 2 class layout on the 345 flying LAX-SIN, they said they can only break even but not making any money at all, that's why they have to convert into one class only and finally works.
How many does TG have in their fleet? I just came in from LHR in one of those ( different config I assume ) but still same type. I guess Governments don't care about Economics, Germany bought at least one as their "Air Force One" if I am correct.

Never mind, I just found it. They have ten, 4 of the 500 series, which had the Premier Coach seats, and 6 of the 60 series, the one I came in from LHR with 8 F seats.
