I think it will be more acceptable when more large aircraft enter service. People used to think 21 people was too many when the DC-3 was introduced in the '30s. And the 747 had many issues (like boarding and meal service) when it was first introduced, but I haven't encountered any of these problems when I've flown on them.
The first crash with 800 casualties might be a shocker, but far less than the carnage on the interstate.

It relies upon on your standards. in case you think of the A380 is a neat airplane, wait till Boeing unveils its very final airplane layout for a great jumbo that it will call the 797. My suspicion is that the organization is studying a thank you to make plastic planes with the 787, and that the organization will layout and manufacture a gas sipping airplane which will fly circles around the A380. Had the French (Airbus) designed this airplane 30 years in the past, it may be the extensive accomplishment you will be attempting to declare that it fairly is. Boeing sized its 747 so as that there would not could desire to be too plenty achieved interior the way of redesigning commercial terminals and runways. With what Boeing learns from the 787, it incredibly is going to likely be waiting to sell this 797 airplane to airways that then won't could desire to call for longer runways and larger terminals for its clientele. it incredibly is going to likely be a decrease-fee version of the A380.

Most of the airlines that are going to fly the Airbus A380 plan to keep the current configuration which is about 500 seats..but that could change once the jetliner is in routine service.

I don't like the idea.... waaaay too crowded for me. and there is no way I will go fly an A380 once I am a commercial pilot, I just don't like the idea of that many people in the same confines can I am flying.
I do hope they have a good ventilation system in that thing.

I think before long this will be so common place that people won't think twice about it. The fact is, it is economically less expensive to have fewer flights with more people on each flight. As such, planes like this will likely be the wave of the future.

I don't like the idea of being 800 passengers. It is hard enough just being me.

I would like to try it, just once, for the novelty. It's like all the people in my graduating class, or my sisters small town can board this giant.
I hear they are having problems getting this baby feasibly air-worthy.
Go Boeing!

does not really appeal unless the tickets are dirt cheap, it takes forever for a 747 to load and take off and the queues for the toilets can be horrendous
