> Decades later it's looking like Boeing made the right call. I don't believe that it was not as much as Boeing making the right call as it was the A380 suffering from massive delays that lead to its introduction right on the onset of the global financial crisis. Faced with a short-term scenario where demand for air travel would even drop, spending an extra 200 million on each plane to acquire 4 times the seating capacity and is more expensive to operate isn't exactly a sound business decision. Moreover, not all airports could serve the A380. The hub and spoke model is a fundamental part of today's air travel, but so is offering frequent flights between hubs. If an airline serves between 60 to 80 clients per flight, why would they spend more to get 10x the required capacity and costs more to operate?
