Singapore Airlines made aviation history this week, operating its 1,000th A380 commercial flight.
SQ 322, which departed from Singapore Changi Airport for London’s Heathrow Airport on 4 August was the 1000th A380 flight since operations of the world’s largest passenger aircraft were launched on 25 October 2007. The Singapore Airlines A380 has clocked 8,500 flying hours and has carried almost 400,000 customers.
“Strong load factors are a validation from customers of the Singapore Airlines A380 cabin product,” SIA said.
The carrier currently has five A380s in service. It is scheduled to receive a further 14 A380s (the next one in September 2008), and has options on a further six.
