LAX: Ready When You Are, Airbus!

Filed under: Airlines, Airport, Dreamliner — Rick Seaney @ 9:02 pm

One of our FareCompare writers who attended the Los Angeles Times Travel Show over the weekend reports that folks at the LA airport (LAX) are pretty excited about the coming of the Airbus A380.

They already have one new gate ready to go for this Godzilla of a plane (and it’ll also be able to handle Boeing’s Dreamliner); a second gate will be completed by the end of the year.

These are big, BIG gates.

So which airline will be arriving at LAX in this giant plane? Keep reading…

According an LAX rep, Qantas will be flying an Airbus A380 to Los Angeles sometime in October (and the rep added, this will be the U.S. debut of an A380 on a regularly scheduled flight).

Those who have seen this craft in person say it is simply incredible. Count me in as one of those who hopes to fly on one soon.
