I'd be almost willing to bet that one of the first ones sold will likely be to the rock group Iron Maiden.Logically thinking, it would be their/his next step up in aircraft. Will be interesting to see if he grabs one.
Just imagine the cost of the paint job!!

All very nice as long as you only want to fly to places with airports that can handle it eliminating many of the favored recreation destinations.

Does anyone know the operating cost of a A380? Just the base cost like fuel, engines, & maintenance.

Makes a G whiz (650) sound down right frugal at roughly 15% of that figure.

Yes. I think a few will buy just because they can. And the prestige factor outweighs practicality.

Yeah, maybe only to someone like a Saudi King. I don't see a whole lot of 380's becoming private jets.
