"Two's company, three's a crowd..."


So what is eight hundred and forty?......

With news that the first ( in fact being the first and second as they have ordered 2) single class Airbus A380 double-decker super jumbos carrying 840 passengers have been ordered by Air Austral, who are based in La Réunion in the Indian Ocean....

The airline’s president Gérard Ethève said: “The A380 will offer the best comfort of any aircraft in a high density configuration. “With its spacious and extremely quiet cabins, we'll enter a new era in terms of economic air travel....”

But 840 in one class on a plane designed to carry 315 less in various classes, is it really an answer, or are travellers being treated more and more like cattle?
