Etihad Airways has brought an Airbus A380 superjumbo back on the route from Abu Dhabi to Heathrow.
The double decker aircraft will operate multiple services on the London route for the first time since the pandemic.
The aircraft is configured with 68 Economy Space seats, 337 Economy Smart seats, 70 Business Studios on the upper deck and nine First Apartments including a shower room.
Etihad Airways chief executive Antonoaldo Neves said: “We’re excited to once again welcome guests onboard Etihad’s A380s and step into a truly remarkable experience.
“Whether our guests are choosing to fly in economy, business, first or our three-room suite in the sky The Residence, this aircraft provides an elevated flying experience which we take extreme pride in.
“The aircraft adds much needed capacity connecting Abu Dhabi with London Heathrow and allows us to build our network and increase frequencies across the network.
“With a surge in demand for travel over the summer, the return of our much-loved A380 comes at the perfect time.”
