Korean Air to operate A380 from UK
Korean Air is to deploy an A380 on the London to Seoul route from next month.
Starting on March 27, the airline will operate the double-decker on flights departing from Heathrow.
Korean Air has 10 A380s, all configured in a three-class layout with a total of 407 seats.
The airline claims to offer the most spacious economy class of any carrier, with just 301 seats.
Korean Air’s sales manager for UK & Ireland Peter Barron said: "The UK market has been keenly awaiting the opportunity to experience Korean Air’s A380 aircraft with its innovative layout and unique features. Our passengers will not be disappointed."
