Wow Sarah that is a shock

given JB did not leave last year. Guess we maybe be spotting JQ livery A380s soon given the QF brand champion has thrown in the towel ... wonder how many seats the QF A380s would hold if they used the same seats as the JQ A330s.

I think high density 2 class A380 like EK will have is around 600-700 pax...maybe if JQ were to operate it something similar to this I would say.

Keep dreaming guys...there's not enough bogans going to Phuket/Vietnam to warrant that sort of capacity!!!

Hi Jason, no need to re-quote the exact post above in your message, thank you - mod

You are assuming they would fly a JQ A380 on current JQ routes ... someone would have to take over the current QF routes...

When the 332s went to JQ only the seat fabrics and curtains changed. The seat type and number are the same QF domestic spec.

A domestic, high density 388 would probably seat around 650 as others have hypothesised.
