I understood the A380 was supposed to increase the throughput of congested airports like Heathrow by increasing the pax load per flight. If I read the above correctly, in the real world the additional time between departures effectively negates this advantage, and on arrivals means there is little real benefit.

Am I reading the Airbus report correctly?
