Here at TFC we are in love with the A380, so we are very sensitive when it comes to talking about this model built by Airbus, especially because in many They gave him up for dead and buried.
In recent days came the incredible news that Lufthansa will reactivate 8 of its double-decker planes, many of which were ready to be dismantled.
While we will have to wait until next summer to see the German carrier's A380s, it will be possible very soon to encounter other examples of this model. The two Korean carriers, Korean Air and Asiana (which Sooner or later they will become a single carrier), have announced that they have restored some of the A380s in their fleet and announced the new routes where they will be used.
Korean Air
The national airline, which also restored connections with Italy to Milan and soon to Rome, will fly from Seoul to New York and Hong Kong. Flights to Tokyo, however, will start in September, when hopefully Japan's borders will be open.
Asiana
The aircraft will be used on the two busiest routes, namely Los Angeles and Bangkok. With 495 seats, the A380 is the largest aircraft in the fleet with nearly 200 more seats per flight than the other long-haul models in the fleet, namely the A350 and A330.
In conclusion
In recent weeks we have seen the revival of almost half of the A380s still in service. Even Qantas has reactivated its giants to fly from London to Sydney, not to mention Emirates, which of course operates almost the 80% of the giants in service.
