6/14/18 - Retirement of Airbus A380-800 aircraft
Effective June 18, 2018, Great British Air will start the retirement process forthe Airbus A380-800. With an average age of 2.28, these 5 aircraft will return back to the lessor, which will be replaced by the newer, more fuel-efficient Boeing 747-8i. Customers can still expect most of the premium service offered on our Airbus A380-800 to be carried over on our Boeing 747-8i.
The first Airbus A380-800 to be retired will be G-UKAC, which will be replaced by G-LGWA (747-8i), which will operate on the London - Chicago route.
Regards,
