Terminal 5B doesn't have 3 airbridges. Some stands only have 2 airbridges. Now as we know, every A380 aircraft has to be used up to 3 airbridges. 2 on Lower decks and the other upper deck. Not sure that is a correct statement. I don't thing ATL has 3 air bridges for the KE A380?

I read somewhere (on this board or Twitter or ... ? but can't find it now !) an interesting fact that at Heathrow in 2016 10% of all passengers were flown by the A380, that's 7.6 million on the A380 alone !

It's been a while I haven't seen this page going on..
So out of the all the airlines who serve the A380 to Heathrow,the airport has lost Malaysian Airlines. Soon to be returned!
As of Korean Air I believe they run on seasonal operations - Summer?
