Glad you enjoyed your flight Ali!! However, I feel I must point out that the Emirates fleet of A 380's don't carry as many 750 pax. Initially they were fitted out to carry 489, but the link below suggests that some are now fitted to carry up to 517.

Still a big load of people though!

Thanks for the reply Nomis....Your right about the no. of pax... I made a bit of a wild guess! I wish i knew then, I would not have been as nervous as its about a 100 or so more ppl than a Boeing 747 which Ive travelled alot with.
Have you been on the a380 yet or planning to?

Haven't flown on an A380! Haven't flown for years to be honest Ali, far happier sitting by a runway watching them.
Out of interest for you, and others too, A380's will be flying soon with a capcity of up to 840 pax. Air Austral ordered 2 a few years back, to use on high density flights between La Reunion and Paris. See link for more detail;
