Worlds largest passenger plane drops in to Larnaca
August 3, 2018
The world’s largest passenger plane, an Airbus A380, landed in Larnaca early on Thursday after departing from Denmark at 8.15pm the day before.
The plane, which ordinarily would be used to reach destinations far from Copenhagen, was reportedly used because tour operator Thomas Cook was left without an aircraft following a technical problem on the Greek island of Rhodes which left the operator short of a plane. The plane was leased from Hi-Fly, which is leasing it from owner Doric for almost six years.
While some airports need to upgrade to accommodate this type of planes, Larnaca is not one of them.
