US $100k for what is basically a 3 week ConTiki tour for the conspicuous consumption set, I tend to think I could get better value for those $$$$.

Wonder if they had many cancellations in the last coupla weeks?

Cheers

Inbound from Raratonga at 1740. It is scheduled to go straight to the International Terminal.

I don't know where it's going to park for the next few days.

Arrived as "Iceland Air 1440". The Starboard side is all white as per Stu's description and the port side matches the photo posted previously.

The way Iceland's banking system & economy are at the moment, I thought the special titles were going to be "Please send money!!!!"

Luckily? I posted an hour and a half before its arrival that it'd be going to the SIT!:p

I would think so.. it should be either at SIN awaiting the guests arrival from Bangkok on the Eastern & Oriental Express train.
