258 passengers on an A380 SIN LHR

Sounds like a B777 would be a better long haul aircraft for that route.
International travel is always seasonal. Currently, northbound loads are light but the aircraft are chockers southbound so you still have to send the high capacity aircraft up to Europe to accomodate that.
