The superjumbo bought by Hi Fly was formerly used by Singapore Airlines.
Hi Fly joins the ranks of British Airways, Lufthansa, and Air France, in Europe, and airlines such as Emirates, Singapore Airlines and Qantas, which have the greatest numbers of A380 aircraft in operation.
Hi Fly’s decision to buy this plane reveals that there is room for the A380 in the market, says Paulo Mirpuri, president of Hi Fly, who added that “this acquisition has been part of the company’s plans for some time”, describing it as “a moment of pride for
Hi Fly”.
The A380 is about 73 metres long and 24 metres high, with the ability to make longer and more comfortable journeys.
The structure of the plane is divided into three types of cabins and has a capacity for 525 passengers.
