Question

When will qantas gets its first A380 and how many have been built so far?

Answer 1

they get first 380 in august, itll start routes from sydney - LA, melbourne - LA, im not 100% sure about the route, but qantas say on their site their first one comes in august. can't wait for one to hit brisbane!

Answer 2

Qantas recently upped their order by eight aircraft bringing the total to 20 for the airline. Sixteen customers have ordered a total of 192 A380s so far. For more info, see details at wikipedia:

I like to check this every month or so. Somebody's keeping it updated fairly well.

*Correction* There are reports stating that Qantas has recieved one but, unfortunately, that's untrue. This might be due to a visit and display, but it looks like August is the date, as these other answers state. Thanks to all for the correction.

Answer 3

Qantas should get their A380 by August and will launch it on the Sydney- Los Angeles route and by years end, they should have a total of 4 A380's delivered to them. 13 A380's have been built, structurally complete with engines attached, most of them are in Toulouse for rewiring(the major cause of the delays) while some  like the first Qantas A380 are in Hamburg for painting and cabin furnishing.

Answer 4

Qantas will get their fist A380 this year being the second operator of the A380 after launch customer Singapore Airlines.as of March 20,2008,3 A380s are in service.If you want to see the A380 website of Singapore Airlines,the address is www.singaporeair.com/a380=D

Answer 5

The first Qantas A380 flight is planned for mid October, although they should receive delivery late August.  The first flight is Melbourne to LA.  I know because I will be on it!

I think that Singapore have 3 A380s and the next delivery from Airbus will be the one for Qantas.
