Just wondering, how big of a deal 90 mins off a 11 - 16 hours transpac flight are. (?)
By comparision, I was lucky to fly the Concorde between Paris and Washington once. Considerable time saving: 5 hours on a 8 1/2 hour flight. Am I missing someting?

I could forsee the beancounters at the airlines CFO office really warming up to the A-380, once true operating costs/seatmile$ are available.
