Airbus A380 is the largest passenger aircraft in operational service. From 2007 until now, over 120 units have entered the fleet of 10 air carriers. A380 can fly up to 15 200 km without stopping, with a maximum carrying capacity of up to 880 passengers in one class. This results in a very good cost / passenger / 1000 ratio of km, with a lower environmental impact.

The Airbus A380 fleet has accumulated over 1.3 million flight hours in approximately 155 000 commercial flights. To date, approximately 55 million passengers (we do not know if they are unique) have enjoyed the unique experience aboard an A380. Every 5 minutes, an A380 takes off or lands on the 30 network of airports approved for superjumbo.
