  2.  @jayg6434  Most likely decommission and part them out until the last A380 lands. It doesn't have much of a future hauling freight due to its strictly human-centered design that's ill-suited to modify for pallets, unlike the 747 that is fundamentally a cargo plane with seats bolted on.

  3. They're not so much for flights as they are for parts.

  4. For most airlines and their routes yes. It's really only viable for Gulf hubs that doesn't have so much point-to-point competition.

  5. Mostly because the 777X has yet to deliver, so the more A380s they can snag the longer they'll have parts to keep the superjumbo in the air until they're ultimately replaced.
