NEW ERA - The Airbus A380s Return
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 мар 2024
- The Airbus A380 fate seemed dead and buried during the height of the global pandemic. However, airlines returned the type to service in sheer numbers to meet rising demand and combat the increasing supply chain struggles resulting in delayed delivery of new aircraft. Will the resurgence of the A380 last?

I'm hoping they go for years to come. Passengers do seem to love them.
We the people of the World want a new A380 Neo 🥰
Airbus Confirmed there is going to be NO A380neo!
As a passenger in any class it can’t be beaten 👌
I ❤ the a380 and I don’t want it to be retired for good 😊
After flying in this plane many times i'm glad she's back. As long as i'm flying i'll pay for her
I have never been on an A380. I would love to see the inside of one before I die.
A380 will always be the best aircraft to travel on.
Also, demand for non-Boeing aircraft seems to be increasing. I travel ~50% for work, and I have SEVERAL coworkers who are declining trips which include Boeing segments.
Well.. if you have a choice of going in a Boeing 737 max 9 with a door plug, or a A380... I guess the choice is nor that hard.
Nobody have ever died as a result of falure of a A380... of cause there was just a few hundred produced. But that is also true for the A340... and the A350
(Granted, nobody have actually died as a result of a error in a dreamliner... but.. well. That probobly will not stand.
@@matsv201 That's not the comparison... must be 737 vs A320 and as passenger flying in cheap economy, if I have the opportuny to choose, then the extra inch and comfort of Airbus wins
Bring back the A380, emperor of the skies😍🥰❤️
The a380 is called the King of the skies 👍
@@dh-jzrs i started calling it king a while ago, but upgraded to emperor for many reasons but especially to stop the rabid patriots also known as boeing fans from using it in the future😂
The true emperor of the skies would be the An-225, but it was destroyed two years ago
In the end - maybe ten or so years down the line - there will be a A380neo. Slots are limited, MANY more people will want to fly. Thus. I’m 100% certain.
Even today, new engines plus some modifications on the winglets would make the current A380 about 20% more fuel efficient. Without any redesign of the airframe.
I disagree with the A380neo!
No problem. I stand by what I said. @@aryaansrivastava3756
Supplier difficulties will help keep the A380 going for another ten years and the rest is a mix of Boeing's troubles, world politics and how much demand grows at slot restricted airports. We await with interest, and hopefully at least 25 more years of A380s.
I enjoyed my round trip flights to Australia and back a few years ago, courtesy of A380s both way. They are much quieter and smoother flying than the 747, and much roomier than the 777. I've flown business class in all three and much prefer the A380. I hope that Airbus find a way to restart production with a NEO version. I am sure it would be the airliner that Cunard would have wanted to fly were they around today.
The A380 is a wonderful aircraft. One has to ponder the question regarding future travel expansion. Then the question is are Airbus willing to redesign the A380 wing to accommodate the new Roles Royse engine. Then the A380 could be flying for many more years into the future
As of December 2023, at least 18 Airbus A380 are scrapped. Let see if Global Airlines can lift off the ground this year.
I have two BA A380 flights coming up. The airline is already operating three flights per day on my transatlantic route, there aren't the spare slots to add more flights. The 777x might be a better alternative, but Boeing couldn't organize a pissup in a brewery these days and frankly aren't safe anymore.
what sint safe?
@@Michaelcat5 Anything Boeing is currently designing or manufacturing. They don't have the engineering staff to design safe aircraft. They have no worthwhile quality assurance.
Corporate type management micro managing engineering operations is the key to this. I worked at 3 companies that fell apart when accountants made engineering decisions for us.
New composite folding wings that fit within a 777 footprint, new engines, maybe even a new fuselage material and stretched variant.
It doesn't have a place, it IS the place
Who wants Airbus to develop the A380neo raise your hand?
I love the very comfortable A380. I hoped it would have a career as long as the 747.
I think Airbus should design a brand new twin-engine A380, maybe naming it A380-1000neo. 🤣 With A350 type of "high-lift" wing structure. I have been on the Asiana and China Southern A380 before. I hope that the Global Airlines will take off soon with the China Southern A388.
Needs to be updated, new engines and new wings and new fuselage if necessary.
Just a fantastic experience travelling on a 380, I have flown business on a BA380 just amazing first is the next goal.
interesting - but one has to remember point-to-point flights are less efficient than hub and spoke for the movement of large numbers of passengers, especially when airports are being restricted in their expansion.
I think the resurgence of the A-380 will continue, especially after the latest Boeing fiasco.
I just flew to Singapore and back on SIAs A380. The 15 hour flight back (due to strong winds) became very uncomfortable, however would have been torture on something like a 787 with its ultra narrow seats. The A380 Itself has more personal space than any other aircraft, much smoother too. The only other aircraft I will fly overnight or 10hr + is 777s with proper 9 abreast seating, not the re- hashed 10 abreast airlines are now using. As for 787s, only Japan Airlines has the proper 8 abreast seating that it was designed for.
Is there a possibility Airbus will/can restart production?
So much for expert opinion.
The 777x with long range tanks will be the best a380 replacement
Boeing needs to hire more staff and get this back on line
The A380 is great for airlines in two main areas: dealing with capacity during peak seasons, and offering more premium seats which generates higher revenue. For those two reasons, the aircraft will enjoy a limited role for some time, but the 777-9 will change the game by becoming the highest capacity twin engine airliner in history.
The 777-9 will always be just a longer 777. It will simply never compare to the comfort, quietness, and sheer capacity of the a380. The only reason why the A380 has a "limited" and somewhat comparable number of seats to the new 777-9, is because of the vastly superior 1st class options of the A380, and its luxurious amenities, like having a shower. Many business travelers, including those in the companies I worked for, will pay extra and choose dates and times specifically to fly on the A380 due to these features. Nobody will go out of their way to do this to fly on a 777, regardless of its size. For as long as it can be maintained, the A380 will always be a flagship for the airlines providing the best services on the market, while the 777 will only be a workhorse that will look to have as many passengers as possible. Assuming Boeing and its partners can get their act together and build it correctly, making it safe.
With ultra skinny seats in economy. A320s and 737s have better seats than 787s or 10 abreast seating 777s
@@stephanguitar9778It depends on the airline and what seats they select, but they're all thinner nowadays. Most seats are the same, whether installed in a narrowbody or a widebody.
@@sainnt No, Airlines have chosen to have an extra column of seat's in their 787s and 777s ie 787 was designed to have 8 abreast seating but only Japan Airlines has that, the rest have 9 abreast. 777s were all 9 abreast but now most are 10 abreast. This is pure misery on long flights. We swapped from a Singapore airlines A380 London to Singapore to a Singapore airlines 787, 2 hour flight to Bali, it had very tight seating, ie worse than most 737s. Emirates is the same, brilliant A380s but miserable 777s. Last year I flew on JALs 787 with 8 abreast seating and it was as good as the A380..
The 787 cannot have 10 abreast seating. I was talking about the A350 which can now be had with 10 abreast. French Bee A350 has 10 abreast I believe.
It's true that older 777 had 9 abreast seating. I flew one a couple of years ago on Egyptair, but most 777-300ER comes with 10, and they're not uncomfortable.
Like I said before, nothing can match the comfort of the A380 because of its width, but I've flown Emirates 777 in economy and it's quite comfortable. I've only flown Singapore Airlines in premium economy on the A350ULR, but that's a more comfortable seat that's 8 abreast, so I can't comment on their seat.
I recently flew on Qatar Airways 787-9 in economy, and even though it's a slimline seat, it was still fairly comfortable due to the provided amenities.
I flew A380 to Australia this year with Singapore, I urgently want to fly Emirates NEW 4 class a380!
I think the A380s will last for quite some time. Maybe until the early 2030s.
Etihad airways is the newest one to bring it back and I think Etihad will keep it going until 2035 at the latest. Etihad has plans to expand, so keeping the A380s until the 2030s might be best.
With all the troubles at Boeing.. Airbus should take the risk to make the 380 NEO
Safety, ie 'safe flying' whether precieved or not, does sell, in the end. Qantas Pilots have always maintained that A380 is Next Level. See 60minutes (Australia) spot about engine explosion. 'Boing' dragging their feet in new 777x gives the King life still.......as A350-1000 engine squabbles persist with Airbus , Emirates & Qatar...
Ty dj!!
The 380 will go, the same as the Queen of the Skies - the Boeing 747 did
Does DJ actually see what's actually happening in SIA A380 fleet, or continue with his love affair with this bloated beast..
Just a few weeks ago, they stated they're cutting back on the flagship Hong Kong route, replacing them with more efficient twin engine aircraft..
A "Bloated Beast" that does not compromise on passenger comfort. Singapore still backs the A380, the reason the Hong Kong flights are cut down to 1 A380 flight and rest A350 are due to various reasons. But mostly because Singapore wants to use them in more premium, high density flights. Look at Emirates, they cut down some A380 flights but added them on more high density routes like Bangkok (which is now an all A380 flight for Emirates). Pretty sure Singapore is following the same strategy

hi 1st
Yay! 😂 🥇
When and if fuel prices goes down, the A380 will be even more relevant .
analysts,,experts...just shut-up because you don't know a damn thing
The A380 will fly for the next 10 years. Then they will be replaced by wide-body 2 engine planes like the Airbus A350 NEO or Boeing 777 MAX.
Bingo, 10ish years then beer cans. Those cans being transported on a 747-8F.
No one would buy a 777 Max based on the name alone. They would come up with another name.
