First A380 to be delivered to Singapore Airlines today

Breaking news, 15 Oct 2007

TOULOUSE, France – Airbus is set to celebrate the first A380-Megaliner-handover to first customer Singapore Airlines today at the Airbus Delivery Centre here.



The airline’s new A380 will take-off for Singapore tomorrow, October 16, arriving at Singapore’s Changi International Airport the following day. The next generation, eco-efficient double-decker will enter service between Singapore and Sydney, with a special charity-flight, between both cities on 25/26th October. The scheduled services will commence daily from 28 October.



Being cleaner, greener, quieter and smarter, the A380 is already setting new environmental benchmarks in air-transport. Per passenger, the A380 has an unmatched fuel efficiency of less than three litres per 100 kilometres.
