Airbus’ 21st century flagship has made its name as the world's largest, greenest passenger aircraft, and has captured the imagination of air passengers everywhere.
The big news for operators is that the A380 is earning hard dollars at the same time.Introducing this next-generation jetliner is saving customers millions in operating costs annually while creating thousands of extra seats on long-haul routes. With the lowest cost per seat and the lowest emissions per passenger of any large aircraft, the A380 provides a competitive edge.
The A380 is generating excitement as well as profits. With the best cabin in the sky offering unparalleled comfort for all, the A380 has become a must-have ticket on every route it flies – resulting in higher load factors, a higher market share, and higher profit margins for operators.
A new role for the A380 is as a high-density airliner for certain applications, including the opening of low-cost travel to more markets. Air Austral is the first customer acquiring Airbus’ 21st century flagship in a single-class configuration – to be operated between La Reunion in the Indian Ocean and Paris, France with an 840-passenger capacity, offering the largest and most comfortable economy-class seat in this market. |
