- Dubai's Emirates is the largest customer for the Airbus A380.
Will you be on the first commercial Emirates A380 flight to New York on August 1? Did you book it specially because it was an A380?
Are you looking forward to it? Would you like to tell us about your experience? Do you think the A380 will revolutionise air travel?

I think this will definitely be better because the airbus is a 'gentle giant' which means it's eco-frriendly and it's just amazing.

A380 will definitely revolutionize the air travel. Its a Super Jumbo with much more facilities and accommodation....
Not to forget, Dubai is ahead of other Airlines in the UAE, in getting the A380!
Well done and wish you all the best for the inaugural flight to New York on the 1st of August!

I am an aviation enthusiast. Of course, I love this giant bird. Even I wish, one day I could fly in this beautiful aircraft. The largest aircraft ever made.
I wish all the success to the entire group of Emirates, especially, to H.H. Sh. Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, the Chairman and Chief Executive officer of Emirates.
I was so excited to see the A380 in Emirates livery.
I must say yesterday was an extremely a proud day for everyone in this Emirates.

I don't think the A380 wil 'revolutionise air travel' - it is EXACTLY what the airline world needs - it was the next logical step (Boeing missed out !)and it really isn't all that big ie 'too big' - it is the right size right now and every major airline will HAVE to have one - GREAT....!!!!

First and Business Class certainly look impressive. One question: will Emirates be fitting 10 rows of seats abreast into Economy, as they do with some of their 777s?
Wishing Emirates the best for the future and hoping that they get to earn a Skytrax 5 star rating in 2009. That would be a proud moment for Arabia: having had two different Gulf-based airlines from two different Gulf countries, having held the 5 star rank within a year of each other!
Perhaps passengers could report their exciting A380 flight experience (and all other flights on all airlines for that matter)on the Skytrax website? Let thousands of travelers of the world read about our new A380s!
