Emirates A380 in Manchester for new Superjumbo route

A380 on Manchester route

Manchester Airport sees the arrival of regular A380 services, with Emirates flying the world's largest passenger jet into the UK's second city.

Emirates flew the 500-seat Airbus Superjumbo into Manchester at the start of its daily service to Dubai.

Emirates A380 cabins feature 489 seats (14 first class suites, 76 business and 399 economy), and two spa showers at the front of the aircraft, upstairs at the front of the aircraft, for the exclusive use of first class passengers. An extra ton of water is carried on board, which will be enough to feed the use of the showers. The Shower Spas include the use of Timeless Shower kits which come in two versions - Revive and Relax. It is the first time Emirates has brought its First Class cabin to the route.
