A380 at MIA - Upper Deck Jet Bridge?
 
Perhaps a stupid question, but I'm taking an A380 in a few weeks MIA-CDG and wanted to know if MIA is equipped with an upper deck jet bridge as I'm in a wheelchair and can't do stairs. I would assume it does since I see it always leaves from J17 which is where other A380s leave from, but wanted to ask and confirm. Thanks!

Hi HofstraJet,

Indeed, Gate J17 is equiped with 3 jetways (including the one for the Upper Deck)!

Have a great flight to MIA.

Cheers,

Alex

Is AF always there? I saw an AF A380 docked at the E gates a couple weeks ago - likely low E gates.

I am afraid that it is very hard to predict as Gates can change quite frequently for foreign airlines in American airports.
Have you booked Saphir service from AF?
maybe they can provide you with more information and reassure you better

The AF and LH A380 flights all operate from J17 as far as I can see. Maybe it was a temporary park in another gate?

Yes, sometimes when the AF is delayed he parks on the E gates. Happened to me a couple of times :)
