A good friend of mine works as an airtraffic controller. He says that Arlanda has plans to adapt their faclillities for the 380. Anyone else heard about this?
Which is even more thant what the 380 takes in at least the QF, SQ and also EK (IIRC). Why all the fuzz about the 380 then Would not be caught dead in one those sardine cans to Thailand
This year, and next.
QF A380 has 450 seats in 4 classes. SQ A380 has 471 seats in 3 classes, incl. R. EK existing frames have 489 seats in 3 classes incl. R.
EK shall receive 517 seat frames in 3 classes incl. R next year. But in 2010, EK should get A380 frames with 604 seats in 2 classes, coach and business.
Programs: BA Gold, BD Gold, VS Silver, AF/KL Plat, HH Gold, Marriott Gold, SPG Gold

Sounds like EK is going the wrong way with this. More and more towards sardine can
What's about flying between Tokyo/Haneda and Okinawa in 2:45 h?
It can be good training in prior to A380 charter edition.
One heck of a difference between a couple of hours in Japan and 12 hours to HKT. But I agree with earlier poster, just vote with your feet. No need for legislation.
