Emirates unveils new Airbus A380 with 615 seats after ripping out first class to pack in more passengers

Already the world's largest passenger plane, the new two-class Airbus A380 built for Emirates will hold the most seats ever, with 557 in economy (centre) and 58 in business (top left). Despite more seats being crammed on board, economy passengers will not lose any legroom as first class has been scrapped and there are fewer flat-bed seats in business. The Dubai-based airline said economy will still be spacious and comfortable, and guests will enjoy one of the widest in-flight entertainment screens, at 13.3inches wide. See more photos after the cut...

In addition to more space, those in business class will be able to belly up to an on-board lounge for canapes and drinks. The airline has taken delivery of two of the redesigned A380s and will debut them on the airline's new Dubai to Copenhagen route.

    I know about this plane, A380 is the biggest passenger airline ever build. The company is located in different countries from Europe to Asia where the different parts are produced and sent to the base companies to form one airplane. It has swimming pools, about more than 500 hundred seats, bar, shoping, stair cases that linked the floor to the second deck and so on .Infact the airplane is something beyound imarginable. I hope someday Nigeria will get to that level I pray.

My best airline so far. best on air customer service. best ICE to keep youe entertained for the 8-10hrs on air transit. their hostesses are very attentive, ever ready to help and accommodating. plan on flying Etihad next and am hoping it will be as much fun or even better......Go Emirates.

    We fly A380 to Johannesburg from LHR, and they always tell us crew (pilots) to let us know if there is an emergency, as the A380 can only land in few airports (Nigeria not included, because of the wings span/ runway).

    Hence why we haven't flow our A380 to Lagos, instead we use 747.
