Additionally, the A380 finds itself in a weird spot currently.
Passenger airlines are moving away from behemoth airframes to more modern, efficient widebodies such as 787, 777, A330, A350. Freight carriers don't enjoy the restrictions that come with the A380, conversions to freight-only are expensive, and the extra load capacity isn't as useful as it might seem for standard routes. The A380 finds itself in a position where the available market is very small and getting smaller by the day.
