Although the A380 is extremely premium heavy for BA they still have 300+ Y seats. That’s a lot of baggage to have to accommodate, at least theoretically.
Fair point.
When BA was running 2 daily flights, one was an A380 and the other a 77W, departing HKG within 45min of each other. In all classes, the A380 was a favorite and more heavily booked than the 77W. Hence less cargo space on the A380.
Timing was quite different exLHR, so that argument does not apply.
