Due to the weight and the wingspan of the aircraft some have raised concerns that this A380 will be allowed to land in only a few airports. Is that true?

New Doha International Airport (NDIA), the first airport in the world to be designed and built specifically to accommodate the twin-deck A380.
The airline currently operates 39 aircraft flying to 59 destinations across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Indian sub-continent and Asia. For winter 2004/2005, the airline has added six new routes from Doha – Beijing, Seychelles, London Gatwick, Yangon, Johannesburg and Cape Town.
From summer 2005, the network will grow to cover Osaka, Tunis, Algiers and Athens and, by the end of 2005, the airline’s international reach will spread to 70 citi

Most of the larger airports can accomadate the A380 length wise, but alot of airports have to widen the runways. LAX just spent $60 million to widen their runways.

It will be able to land pretty much anywhere a B747 can land. Whether the airport can handle parking it at a gate and loading and off-loading passengers is another story.
