Dream Liner a380-800 !

From cabin comfort and eco-efficiency to operating costs and revenue generation, Airbus’ 21st century flagship A380 offers step-change improvements over any current or proposed 400-plus seat airliner – allowing its operators around the world to boost profitability stimulate demand and increase their market share.

Since its 2007 service entry, Airbus’ A380 has delivered the lowest fuel burn and operating costs in commercial aviation – all while flying higher, further and quieter. In additional to its use on long-haul routes, operating airlines are successfully utilising the A380 on regional segments – and even on high-density shorter-haul flights.

With seating capacity ranging from 400 to more than 800 passengers, the A380 also is an essential part of the solution for sustainable growth – alleviating traffic congestion at busy airports by transporting more passengers with no additional flights and at much lower costs.

UNMATCHED COMFORT

The A380 offers a flying experience no other aircraft in the sky can match, and redefines the meaning of comfort for all passengers – whether they are premium customers in first and business class, or leisure travellers in the economy cabin.

Airbus has gone to great lengths to make long-haul flying aboard the A380 feel more natural for its passengers – with broader seats, more personal storage, better head room and wider stairs and aisles.

The cabin air is recycled every three minutes to keep the atmosphere fresh, while natural light is provided by 220 cabin windows. Four high-level air outlets – as opposed to the industry standard of two – helps passengers feel refreshed, both during and after the flight..

TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION

The A380 embodies 30 years of Airbus experience in applying intelligent innovation to its new products. The result is an airliner at the top of the scale in terms of operational effectiveness, efficiency and profitability.

Airbus’ double-deck jetliner benefits from significant weight savings brought by composites and other advanced materials – which comprise 25 per cent of its structure – as well as the weight, reliability and cost benefits of new systems such as the hydraulic system that operates at a pressure level of 5,000 psi.

In addition, it features an advanced cockpit with the latest interactive displays and avionics, and retains the unique benefits of Airbus operational commonality between all fly-by-wire models.

By producing only about 75g of CO2 per passenger kilometre – which is well below current international limits – the A380 also is supporting the air transport sector’s commitment to minimise greenhouse gas emissions.
