Have you Tried the A380 yet?

[skybird001]

Just wondering, has any cabin crew here flown on the A380- not as a passenger but actually working on any of the test flights or PR flights to the States/Asia etc?

Just wanted to know what it was like, are the galleys much more spacious, lifts, crew sleeping facilities etc? Also, has anyone done the evacuation test thats a member on this forum?

Just was excited to know some details. Thanks

I think its only a few Lufthansa crew who have been on it so far!

Must be pretty cool. I think the team spirit will be much better. Imagine if you had a team of like 20-25 cabin crew. Helping each other out etc. And obviously having a good old time during the 24 hour + layovers you'll inevitably get on the long-haul flights.

I just hope the sleeping quaters are a little bit better than whats around at the moment. But i doubt it!
