- s1artibartfast 2y agoI still prefer A380 when I can get one. The extra space is amazing.
- gruez 2y agoIsn't that determined by seat pitch, which in turn is arbitrarily configurable by the airline? What does the model have to do with it?
- skissane 2y agoGiven how huge the A380 is, it is more likely to fly less than completely full, which increases the odds that you'll have vacant seat(s) next to you in economy class. Also, if you want to go for a walk, the distance you are allowed to walk is a lot further.
- kijiki 2y ago> Given how huge the A380 is, it is more likely to fly less than completely full That is quite nice as a passenger, but also a big part of why they're no longer made, and why most airlines are phasing them out...

- apelapan 2y agoThe A380 has higher ceilings than other planes. Doesn't help the knees but makes it feel a lot more airy.
- johnwalkr 2y agoOne thing I dislike about flying a full-ish A380 is the length of time for meal service. It can be over 1 hour that you have to sit with your tray table occupied and seat upright, before your tray gets picked up. If you want to use a laptop or sleep, it feels like forever.
