Update. The new Korean A380 will NOT be coming on Aug.2 to JFK as previously announced. At the earliest, expect its first arrival on Aug. 7. I spoke in person to a KAL executive in Manhattan and he wasn't even sure about Aug. 7 so I will keep you posted. After its introduction, it will only visit Tu, Th and Sat as well.
Thanks for the update..........I'm kind of glad of the update from Aug 2 to Aug 7. If that's the case, then I should be able to catch the inaugural flight.
Me Too! I can't wait! Although hopefully the inaugural holds out til a Saturday ;-)Quote:

From what I saw on the Korean Air website, the inaugural flight is Tues Aug 9th.Quote:

Funny you say that. So I start off in Northeastern Bronx and it was just gorgeous... the whole trip down to JFK, gorgeous. No sooner than I cross under the 22L lights, the fog starts to roll in. I figured it was a temporary thing. No way, it continued to get worse and worse until it was completely covered. The A380 would appear no farther than about 1 DME through the clouds... :mad:
It was clear and gorgeous in Nassau all morning. Just as we were driving into the airport the clouds rolled in but it was still pretty clear so I had a little hope. But as we got to Rockaway Blvd we saw the fog. Too bad. But on a sunny day she is going to look awesome against a clear blue sky.
