A380

The Airbus A380 is the new biggest baddest aircraft around in the world of commercial aviation. This aircraft is a Double-Decker, wide body, four engined aircraft build for commercial use. When this aircraft was brought into production and then put on to the line of duty it took over the Boeing 747 of being the largest commercial aircraft. Airbus A380 was in production from 1991, and in 2007 the first Airbus A380 was delivered.

This aircraft has the most allowed seating than any aircraft, which will allow less trips with aircraft's to the same destination, making more money with less flights. Inside the aircraft there is reduced noise coming form outside, which would make more passengers feeling more energetic and rejuvenated upon arrival. This aircraft is also CO2 emission friendly, dispersing the least about of emissions into the air. The aircraft is also built for comfort, it is outfitted with top of line seats to create the greatest customer satisfactions, and this would make more people feel like plane rides are no longer a hassle.

The A380 has delivered to six airlines already, and they have been the first six to recieve this aircraft after production.Their are quite a few more airlines who are placing orders for this aircraft, and we should be seeing more of them in the future. This aircraft on my career can make the management job become easier and more effective. With these aircraft we will be able to save on fuel, terminal space, and open up more flights. this aircraft is able to take on more people people per flight increasing the money brought in per flight, an along with saving on other cost from having to use two aircraft's to do what one can. The A380 is an aircraft that can improve the industry if utilized, and this aircraft makes the commercial industry for air transportation become a more effective business.

  1. The Airbus 380 is the ideal solution for alleviating traffic congestion at busy airports and for maximizing the operator’s profit margin in today's hard market. Although this aircraft may meet the business demands of most major airlines due to its larger seats capacity and wider-body, it may not be the ideal solution for any airline. Why? The A380 is intended for long-range flights between major airports that can handle its size, and landing requirements. This also raises a concern regarding an emergency landing situation, and whether or not this aircraft can land safely at a smaller airport.
