This article gives me absolutely no perspective on the actual issue at hand. Why are customers cancelling their A380 orders - am I to make the assumption that these other airlines prefer the Boeing over the Airbus based on the Emirates order?
I apologize if I'm missing some extremely obvious points in the article, but this article appears to be about 80% editorializing and 20% substance. I'd really like to know what is driving demand for airplanes, and why the A380 is falling behind.
- youngtaff 10y agoI'd like to know if the cancellation rate of the A380 any different to that other wide-bodies (are these really cancellations, or options that aren't being taken up anyway) A380 seems to cater for hub based carriers e.g. Emirates, or routes into congested airports e.g. LHR -> SFO, whereas the Boeing's seem more point to point based. On our trip to Australia last year we saw plenty of A380's in Dubai and Singapore
