German airline Lufthansa has reversed course, deciding to bring back the world’s largest passenger airliner, the double-decker Airbus A380.
Increasing passenger airline travel and delays in new aircraft deliveries are the key reasons behind the move, Lufthansa announced Monday. Measuring 73 meters (240 feet) long and 24 meters (79 feet) high, Lufthansa’s seating configuration for the A380 “superjumbo” seats up to 509 passengers.
