Airbus A380

Last summer, I went back to Ireland to visit my parents.

I flew from Tokyo to Frankfurt, Frankfurt to Dublin.

From Tokyo to Frankfurt, I flew on the Airbus A380.

This is the largest passenger airliner in the world.

It is also called the "Superjumbo".




This airplane is much quieter than other airplanes and the ride was very smooth!

I could relax even though I only had a cheap ticket.

I thought that this airplane would use too much fuel but it uses 20% less fuel per passenger than other airplanes.

More and more people are flying every year.

But all of the airports are already full.

And it is difficult to open new airports.

The only other choice is to have bigger airplanes!
