Only if the price is right, because if everybody only pays $9.95 for their ticket, you can fly full all day and lose money.

And what's so magical about the A380? Why can't airlines "make millions" if flying at theoretical 100% load factor with their conventional widebodies being operated right now. . . ? There are two other elements besides load factor, called: price competition and excess capacity.
