Thousands of people gathered at Manchester airport on Wednesday to greet the world’s largest commercial airliner the Airbus A380. The plane which carries 517 passengers in a double-decker style was making its first arrival at Manchester airport.
The Emirates plane set off from Dubai and arrived at Manchester at 12.25pm, crowds commented on a special day and one to remember as the plane made its monumental touchdown.
The airport had spent £10 million on upgrading its airfield to accommodate the huge aircraft and becomes the first regional airport to have a daily A380 service in operation.
Heathrow started taking the arrival of the Airbus back in 2008
