Thanks for the insight. It didn't make sense to me, but one can always wish for the best. I believe that BA is the only carrier flying an A380 at ORD. And I thought someone had initiated a trial some years ago, but after the ground crew damaged the aircraft with the jet bridge that trial was scrapped relatively quickly. I am hoping when ORD finishes it massive overhaul, particularly with the new T-2 that they will be able to attract some A380 routes.
