[The countdown to the golden age of super-large aircraft enters. Qantas will retire all Airbus A380s early] September 15th, Qantas Group recently officially announced that it will gradually retire all 10 Airbus A380s starting in 2028, approximately four years ahead of schedule. Many media analysts commented that this is not a simple fleet adjustment, but a collective farewell to the "big aircraft era" for the entire aviation industry. It is expected that net cash flow savings of approximately AUD 300 million (approximately RMB 1.43 billion) will be achieved from fiscal year 2028 to 2031. The A380 made its maiden flight in 2007. Due to high fuel consumption, high maintenance costs, and insufficient passenger sources, production will be discontinued in 2021. The A380 may still be seen in the next few years, but the golden age of super-large aircraft has entered a countdown. (CCTV Finance)
