A flying city. Two full decks, 500+ passengers, showers in first class. Airbus stopped production in 2021. Every one still flying is a treasure.
Fun fact
Emirates operates 123 A380s — more than half of all superjumbos ever built.
How to spot one
It's the A380. You can't miss it. Double-deck, four engines, dwarfs everything around it.
Crews call it
The Double-Decker
Sounds like
Four engines create a low rumble that you feel more than hear. Remarkably quiet in the cabin.
