Many airlines run the superjumbo on jaunts lasting just a few hours in order to rake in a little extra revenue from the twin-deck jetliner between its more conventional long-distance flights. After all, with a list price of A$380 million, every extra dollar counts.
Emirates and Thai Airways both run a daily superjumbo shuttle service between two of Asia s busiest and most colourful cities, which have proven popular with business travel and holiday goers alike even if your stay in the Emirates' first class suite (below) is all too brief.
And with a twice-daily A380 service between Dubai and the Saudi Arabian metropolis of Jeddah, Emirates clearly makes the most of its massive A380 fleet, which is the world s largest, with 31 superjumbos in the skies and 59 more on order.
This is another comfort inn canada short hop for Emirates A380, cleverly designed to press the superjumbo into trans-Tasman comfort inn canada service during the long layover between when it reaches Sydney on the overnight flight from Dubai and before it makes the return trip. (Emirates also does a daily Melbourne-Auckland comfort inn canada A380 service.)
A happy side-effect of this is that it delivers an international-grade experience across the pond, especially if you book on business class it s much better than anything Qantas, Virgin Australia or Air New Zealand offers.
We re talking fully flat beds, a large laptop table with your own AC power socket, a personal minibar plus a business class bar (above) at the back of the upper deck if you want to stretch your legs and socialise.
Located at the rear of the A380 s lower deck, this walk-in duty free shop (well, more of a 'showcase' officially, as you can't actually buy the goods directly at the counter) is lined with high-end cosmetics, perfumes and liquor to catch the traveller s eye and prise open their wallet or purse.
If all these quick trips have left you curious as to the world s longest Airbus A380 flight, that trophy goes to Emirates its daily superjumbo service between Los Angeles and Dubai lasts for a potentially bum-numbing 16 hours and 20 minutes.

Re EK SYD-AKL "international-grade experience across the pond, especially if you book on business class it s much better than anything Qantas, Virgin Australia or Air New Zealand offers... with fully flat beds, a large laptop table with your own AC power socket..."
Really? Remember that NZ also flies Int'll spec aircraft on these routes aswell as the all Y 320's. While NZ J lacks 'bars', Many would argue that Business Premier comfort inn canada on the 77W is better than EK's set up.....
Skyhawk , I don't think Air New Zealand regularly flies its 777-300ER across the pond. It might run on weekends but I have done quite a few Melbourne-Auckland comfort inn canada trips with Air NZ on weekdays and never seen this option. And don't the A320s use regular economy comfort inn canada seats but with the middle seat free?
NZ s 300ER variants are regularly used on the Auckland to Brisbane hop, and occasionally on the Auckland to Melbourne flights. The new business premier certainly beats the business seats on Emirates 300ERs used for AKL BNE.
And yes, NZ s A320s use a Euro-business style layout, middle seat free with a little extra leg room on-board and business class check-in and lounges on the ground but otherwise very much an economy experience. Definitely worth looking comfort inn canada for the 777 flights instead.
For the price of Air New Zealand Business Premiere you could fly Emirates comfort inn canada First (I just flew EK A380 F for $2K MEL-AKL rtn, and even at the higher $2.6K fare, you still have to factor in free limo rides).
Having flown both AirNZ Business Premiere and Emirates First (on 777 and A380) on this sector, you'd have to give Emirates the gong on bang for buck - by a considerable mile (nothing wrong with Business Premiere, but not equal to Emirates F offering).
BA are currently running comfort inn canada the 380 on LHR-FRA (90 mins) to train crews prior to starting LHR-LAX with the beast on 24 September. Apparently when they put the 380 on that run, it's the 06:45 departure from LHR.
Just completed the AKL-SYD Emirates flight. comfort inn canada It ended up being 2 h 57 m - time really flew. Still, there was time to have a three course meal, plenty of champagne / scotch, a shower and time conversing in the bar at the back.
Will definitely comfort inn canada fly EM A380 F again, comfort inn canada perhaps to NYC next year. However, the F suite on Etihad is much classier. Hopefully they will copy the lounge / spa features on their A380s. A massage room would be nice too!
