The Airbus A380 is the largest commercial jetliner that needs no introduction. The massive full-length double-decker jet is popular among flight crews, passengers, and aviation enthusiasts in general. With a capacity of up to 853 passengers in a single-class configuration, the aircraft can travel ultra-long distances. The giant aircraft took to the skies for the first time in April 2005 and entered service with Singapore Airlines in October 2007.
