How does the A380 disembark?
How does the A380 deplane / unload / disembark?
(I've searched on all three terms and found nothing, but include them here for future searches in case it's useful)
I'm looking at Y seats for an upcoming flight and am currently in 16A (I like windows) which looks like it it will be pretty early off the plane whether we exit from 1L after first class or 2L if first gets their own jetway.
I like the 2 across at the windows of the upper deck, but I'm afraid of being last off the plane and behind 500 other people at passport control.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Departure
- fom CDG : 3 jetways : 1L (1st class), 2L (Y class, lower deck), upper deck (J class and Y class upper deck)
- from JFK : 2 jetways : 1L (1st class & Y class lower deck), upper deck (J class and Y class upper deck)
Arrival : same at JFK and normally the same at CDG, although the jetway at 2L may be placed after the others. So in 16A, you should be out quite rapidly
