As neat as it might be, I don't think I could handle the crowds on a flight on an Airbus A380.



Check out the coach section... 3 seats at each window, and four more in the middle... gah.

Update: For comparison, here's a typical 747 seating layout, with 416 passengers in 3 classes.

I wonder if they'll have to retrofit airport lounges to handle the crowds. The BA flight to London is one of the few 747s that leave SEATAC - they have to use the lounges for four or five gates to hold everyone before boarding. Including a glass 'holding pen' for the steerage class passengers to wait in while they watch the upper deck passengers decend from the executive lounge - with spiral staircase, natch.
