As we speak, AirFrance will be the fourth airline to recieve an Airbus A380 plane and they are the first European airline to get their A380. The other companies that have A380′s already are Singapore Airlines, Emirates and Qantas. I’m a bit surprised that AirFrance is not making more of a fuzz out of this – the link to information about the A380 on the AirFrance page just leads to a “Page not found” page. Anyway, AirFrance will use the plane from Paris to New York City so hopefully we will get a chance to try it in the future. I had the pleasure of trying out the A380 when I went from London to Dubai in March this year as you might remember from this article.
If you want to keep an eye on the production of A380 you can check out this blog or this production list.
i’ll be flying SQ A380 to LHR this coming Sunday
Cool. Have you tried the SQ A380 before? Which class are you traveling on this time?
Unfortunately, change of plans.. I got diverted in Y on TG’s 744 instead!! but 34″ seat pitch makes up for it.. Sigh next time perhaps.. I’ve not flown the A380 before..

Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR-ThLGzVBA
Air France doesn’t have the same niveau of luxury as the asian carriers, but the human atmosphere look quite a bit nicer. Of course, I know it’s not an ordinary flight, but it looks appealing anyway
