800-seat all economy A380

[Gerald A]

A report in The Australian highlights what I believe will be the future of low cost travel out of Australia, with the report referring to the announcement by Air Austral in January that it planned to connect Sydney to Paris through a small island off Africa, using the world's first single-class A380, capable of carrying up to 840 people – yes it did say 840 people!

While the mammoth seat squeezed A380 will not fly to Australia, Boeing 777 flights from Australia will connect with the A380 at the island of Reunion, off the east coast of Africa and take passengers on to Paris

I reckon watch this space, whatever the flying kangaroo says in the media at the moment! Get ready for travelling with 800+ fellow passengers to LA and London with JQ in the very near future.
