All the specialized sites around the world are talking about the order of new planes placed by the Australian airline Qantas, to us this news does not trigger great enthusiasm, on the contrary, however, we are very happy to know that the current 10 A380 in the fleet will fly, at a minimum, until 2032.
In this article:
The confirmation comes directly from CEO Alan Joyce, who on the sidelines of the announcement of 12 new 787 Dreamliners and 12 Airbus A350s explained that the new planes will be used to replace most of the old widebody fleet, namely A330 and A380.
Joyce said that the Super Jumbo "still has a lot of life left in it" all the giants of the skies that have returned to flight after hibernation due to covid have completely renovated interiors and now fly from Sydney to London, Los Angeles, Hong Kong and other destinations where the carrier with the kangaroo drawn on its tail has the greatest demand for passengers.
Of course, I am happy because this gives me plenty of time to be able to tear off a ticket to fly on one of the few A380s still missing from my collection.
