Monster Airbus comes to U.S. — Monster Will Take You to Dubai

The mystery of who would be the first to fly the Godzilla of planes to the U.S. has been solved. Beginning on August 1, Emirates airline (the largest airline in the Middle East) will begin non-stop service between Dubai and New York (JFK) aboard the gargantuan Airbus A380. And more U.S. flights on the “big boy” are on the way: Look for non-stops between Los Angeles and Dubai starting September 1, and flights between San Francisco and Dubai are scheduled to begin sometime in October. Even if you’re not going to Dubai, you might be interested in heading over to the airport just to look at one of these planes. It is a truly awesome sight.
