Also in a single-class economy configuration with 853 passengers, 538 are carried on the main deck and 315 on the upper deck.

The A380-800 has a design range of 15,200 km, sufficient to fly from New York to Hong Kong for example, and a cruising speed of Mach 0.85 (about 900 km/h or 560 mph at cruising altitude).
