Today saw the inaugural commercial flight of the Airbus 380 - an amazing double-decked super jumbo. After taking off from Singapore's Changi airport, it took just seven hours to reach its destination of Sydney in Australia. Tickets were auctioned on eBay for charity, with passengers paying between $560 and $100,380 to be on the inaugural flight. I'm hoping to head out to the Far East at the end of next year, so maybe I'll get the chance to enjoy a flight on this incredible new plane.
