  • Etihad Airways has reintroduced its Airbus A380 superjumbo on US flights after a four-year hiatus.
  • The A380 was almost retired during the pandemic, but Etihad has since had a change of heart.
  • The airline's A380 stands out thanks to its one-of-a-kind, three-room cabin called "The Residence."

Etihad Airways has finally reintroduced its beloved Airbus A380 superjumbo on flights to the US after years of uncertainty.

Purchased as an ultra-long-haul workhorse to connect its Abu Dhabi hub with far-away international destinations, the A380 first flew to New York in 2015 but left when the pandemic halted travel in 2020.
