Airbus Upgrade Services has seen an unexpected number of cabin reconfigurations for the A380, and has so far served all but one of the carriers operating the aircraft type.
“The A380 has come on extremely fast for us in terms of cabin reconfigurations, more than anyone expected,” Airbus-VP Upgrade Services Valerie Manning told attendees Wednesday at the Aviation Week MRO Americas Conference in Dallas.
Manning cited program delays as a possible reason for the unexpected number, as well as overall concept changes, market changes and new innovations, such as connectivity. It has also seen a change of mind about capacity. “We’ve seen increased capacity in some of the cases,” she said.
