Delhi: Twelve suites, LCD screens, food prepared by one of India’s top chefs and 471 seats. No, it’s not a luxury hotel we are talking about. These are the facilities onboard A380, the world’s largest aircraft, which will begin operations in India on May 30.
The size and scale of the aircraft being brought to India by Singapore Airlines has had the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) undertake a series of measures to facilitate its arrival.
On April 7, Singapore Airlines became the first airline to announce the double-decker A380 services to the country, after the Central government gave the green signal in January this year. The aircraft is scheduled to land at 8.05 pm on May 30 at the IGI airport’s Runway 29 and will take off at 10.20 pm. The landing and takeoff will be streamed on the Delhi Airport’s YouTube ID.
The super jumbo jet will take over from the Boeing 777s and fly daily to New Delhi and Mumbai airports. In all, 14 flights will be operated from each city a week.
