Emirates A380 - With showers in the sky!

Emirates has taken luxury travel to new levels with their new A380, which is the most luxurious plane ever built. The plane has a fantastic looking bar/lounges, showers and adjoining spas - the first ever installed on a commercial aircraft.

The £167 million double-decker Airbus is about 73 meters long and 24 meters high, with 489 seats. On the lower deck, Economy Class has 399 seats. The A380 is the world’s only twin-deck, two-aisle airliner, offering the widest cabin of any aircraft. The upper deck was fitted with 76 Business Class seats and 14 First Class "suites." First-class tickets cost around £9,000 for a round-trip ticket from Dubai to JFK.

The plane burns just 3.1 litres of fuel per passenger per 100 kilometers, that's 20% less fuel per seat than today’s largest aircraft and better than most hybrid passenger cars. Emirates have scrapped the in-flight magazines and made them digital, saving 2kg per seat or almost one tonne per aircraft!

Emirates has placed a replica of the A380 at the Heathrow roundabout, once home to a model of BA's Concorde, they have pinched one of the most prestigious advertising site in the UK - passed by over 55,000 vehicles a day and approximately 25 million passengers a year. The roundabout was previously known as Concorde Roundabout, but it has now been renamed to Emirates Roundabout.
