Airbus A380 The Airbus A380 widebody airliner is the world's first and only aircraft with two full decks. The world's largest passenger carrier is powered by four extremely powerful Engine Alliance GP7200 or Rolls-Royce Trent 900 turbofans, each producing a thrust of 332.44?356.81 kN (74,740?80,210 lbf).

The Airbus A380 remains the largest passenger aircraft for international flights in 2026. Often called the "Superjumbo," it is the world's only full-length twin-deck passenger jet, capable of carrying over 800 passengers in a high-density configuration, though most airlines (like Emirates, the largest operator) opt for a luxurious three-class layout seating around 480 to 520 people. While Airbus ceased production of the A380 in 2021, many carriers have retrofitted their fleets to extend their service life through the 2030s. In terms of twin-engine aircraft, the Boeing 777-9 (part of the 777X family) is the largest and longest twin-engine jet, but it still falls short of the A380’s massive interior volume and total passenger capacity. The A380’s sheer scale allows for unique onboard amenities such as private suites, shower spas, and walk-up bars, which no other commercial aircraft can accommodate.
