At the moment they are operating the 787 on routes that can accommodate a larger aircraft however the price of the 787 is so good that that is all they will purchase. They are trying at the moment to get the A380 into Haneda to replace the 747 however Airbus has been trying unsuccessfully since 2015 with no success, if they can’t I don’t know what they will send there. They are short of capacity out of Lax to Australia, both Joburg and Santiago are 350 seat routes what they are going to do I do not know and then to top it off they showed the route planning guru Myers the door. Did I mention right aircraft right route? Like 737s between SYD/MLB and DPS.
What is the issue with the A380 going to Haneda?
