Jfk International Airport on August 1

With the company’s president, Tim Clark, on the inaugural flight from
Dubai, Emirates Airline will make aviation history when the first scheduled
commercial A380 flight to the United States lands at JFK International
Airport Friday Afternoon. The A380 is the world’s largest airliner with 49
percent more floor space and 35 percent more seating than the previous
largest aircraft.

Powered by American aircraft engine maker Engine Alliance’s GP7200
engines, Emirates’ A380 can fly up to 7,456 miles on a full load and is
configured with 14 First Class, 76 Business and 399 Economy seats. The
entire upper level of the double-decker is reserved for First Class and
Business Class passengers with such facilities as two separate Shower Spas
for First Class passengers – commercial aviation first – a lounge attended
by a bartender, and the latest generation of Emirates’ award-winning First
Class Private Suites.

Upon arrival, Tim Clark will discuss the A380’s inflight innovations,
equipment capabilities, fuel efficiency, special flight deck and cabin crew
training and the airline’s plans for expansion.

Following the press conference, Emirates executives and crew will
showcase the aircraft, including the unique 1,200-channel inflight
entertainment system, the ergonomically-designed seats and the
multi-course, gourmet meals with complementary wines and spirits.
