Emirates was the second carrier, after Singapore Airlines, to receive the Airbus A380. Its first example entered service between Dubai and New York JFK nearly 17 years ago, in August 2008. Since then, the superjumbo has carried passengers to 75 airports from its UAE hub, some only once for a special occasion. Of these, 24—including the one-offs and other time-limited flights—no longer see Emirates’ superjumbos. Beijing Capital and Shanghai Pudong had by far the most A380 flights.
