Airbus launches A380 Web site

European airplane manufacturer Airbus has created a web site dedicated to its A380 aircraft, which to date has carried more than 130 million passengers.
iflyA380.com, launched this week, is a web site for travellers who want to experience the double deck aircraft.


“As an aviation company we are exploring new digital avenues and iflya380.com illustrates this transformation journey.” said Marc Fontaine, Airbus Digital Transformation officer. “Booking systems today do not allow the passengers to easily choose their preferred aircraft and we decided to fill that gap by easing access to the A380 aircraft for everybody. For the first time, a booking service puts the aircraft type as the criteria for flight selection. This seamless experience is a win for A380, it’s a win for the airlines operators and it’s a win for the passengers.”

The booking assistant may appeal to travellers as it is the only place where all 13 A380 operators can present the on-board services they offer and the destinations they serve. Inspirational information about each city will also help travellers choose their next vacation. It’s simple: Users select their departure and destination airports/cities, dates and class of travel, the number of travellers and hit ‘search’. They can then click on the desired flight and be taken seamlessly to the website of the selected airline, allowing users to book with confidence at no extra cost.

The A380 seats 544 passengers in standard layout and is the only aircraft with two full decks, allowing it to offer wider seats, broader aisles, and more floor space. Today 230 airports can accommodate the A380 around the word and every three minutes, an A380 either takes off or lands.
