Sorry to say a few years ago I was that person on a flight, I managed to rack up a 400 pound phone bill and get told of from the cabin crew for keep pressing the call button every 5 minutes with my arm.

In my defence it was a gruelling flight and goodness knows what time zone my body clock was in. Touch wood, i haven't been a complete muppet since.

I'm surprised they haven't used it as target practice with the nuts

Yes. I've used them many times, though most of my A388 legs are not long enough to justify a shower in the air.
Quite sadly, I was always alone inside.
Half of the time, the CSA is just standing there, arms crossed when I get out (actually, waiting for me to finish), and I thank God that I didn't do anything shameful, ... like singing loudly or leaving a smelly place

Emirates words not mine.

They are selling the idea that they are private, and they are not. If it was made clear about the cameras I wouldn't have a problem.

Plus when they serve the fish you can no longer have a cheeky wank...... only kidding
That is YOUR understanding of private. Not everyone's.

When a restaurants offers a "private table", do you expect total privacy?
Or a "private seating area" at the theatre.
... the list goes on.

Can someone tell what's directly under the TV monitor in the A380 F lav? (no, not the hair dryer).

Sure looks like there's a camera in there.

It's a small touch screen to adjust the shower floor temperature.

Ah hah, the unlit LCD screen has circular feel that makes it look like a lens is behind it.

Anyway... didn't actually think it was a cam, but given the current discussion...



PS - the dude in the second photo brought his tripod into the lav???
