Emirates targets US and Italy routes with quick Airbus A380 rollouts | The National

Emirates targets US and Italy routes with quick Airbus A380 rollouts | The National:



"Leading superjumbo operator Emirates has begun a blitz on western markets that will bring three more cities in as many days into the network served by the Dubai-based carrier’s Airbus A380 jets.



The airline’s first A380 service to San Francisco left Dubai at 8:50am local time on Monday and is slated to land at 12:50 pm in California. A double-decker service to Milan follows at 3:40pm, landing at 7:35pm Italian time.



The quick-fire rollout, which will also see a superjumbo deployed on the Dubai-Houston route on Wednesday, underscores the global ambitions of Emirates as it establishes Dubai as a crossroads linking all of the world’s leading economies. Already the world’s largest carrier by international traffic, or passengers carried times miles flown, the company has 85 A380s still to come beyond the 55 now in its fleet."
