Hong Kong will be the next destination for the Airbus A380.
Emirates is to operate an A380 on a daily service from
Dubai via Bangkok from
October 1. Hong Kong will be its 11th A380
destination.
The airline will begin daily flights with the A380 to
Manchester on September 1.
The CAA this week certified the airport 'A380
ready', making it one of 17 airports worldwide that can receive the
super-jumbo.
Manchester has spent £10 million upgrading
the airfield including adding a new hi tech stand.
It will be the first regional airport to have a regular
service by an A380.
