Singapore Airlines ready for A380 battle

[Gerald A]

A YEAR after it began service, Singapore Airline's flagship Airbus A380 is still pulling in the crowds.

Despite softer load factors across Singapore's wider network, the big bird is still filling about 90 per cent of its seats and the airline is still able to charge extra for its premium cabins, reports The Australian.

"The A380 has been going great since its inception," said Subhas Menon, Singapore Airlines regional vice-president for the southwest Pacific.
