Airbus!

Raj just figured out that my return flight from Dubai to New York is going to be on one of the new Air Emirates A380 airbus airplanes.  A380s have a passenger capacity of up to 600, and the double-decker planes have four aisles.  I can't imagine!

Since I'm not flying first class I probably won't be allowed into the on-board Shower Spa or First Class Social Area, and I won't have my own massage seat or mini-bar.  But economy class does offer 1,000 channels to choose from, among other cool things, I'm sure.

The inaugural flight of the A380 is tomorrow, August 1, from Dubai to New York.
