About
The Airbus A380 is the world's largest passenger airplane, built with two full-length decks for travelers.
It is the only commercial jetliner with two passenger decks extending along the entire cabin. Compared to the Boeing 747-400, it offers nearly 40 percent more usable floor space. A fully loaded A380 can reach a maximum takeoff weight of over 1,200,000 pounds (544,000 kg). Its massive wingspan required many international airports to widen runways and redesign gates just to accommodate it.
