1) When the airlines started to use the wide body aircraft such as the Boeing 747, the DC 10, or the Lockheed L-1011, the first conclusion they had was that they could move more passengers in different classes like first class or business class using fewer aircraft at the same time. For example it would have been more of an expense to fly two stretched out DC 8s in comparison to flying one DC 10.
1) more passengers= more money
more passengers in one huge aircraft= more cost efficent and better for the environment, especially the A380
passengers and cargo are transported together when possible
so basically, wide body aircraft are cost efficent and better
2)
Airlines started flying the widebodys with the idea that they could move more people, with a lower cost per seat, this was true, but they have slowly been going away from this, as you can see with the new Boeing 787, and Airbus A350, airlines are starting to go with frequency over capacity, they will still have the widebody's for some time to come but they are starting to serve the convenience market as with business travelers wanting to go at a certain time, as well as the vacationer who doesnt really care as long as they wind up at their resort... Airlines are going with the 787 because it has great range, with low costs, and good speed, as for speed, the 747 is still the fastest and in my opinon, greatest airliner in the world... WAY better than the 380...

At first, it was actually bad for the aviation industry, but only as far as airport terminal revenue.
Without wide bodied aircraft, more people had to wait in the airport bars buying $6 beers. That adds up after a while.

The bean counters (Finance guys) have been pleased the most.Also, better powerplants and the high-bypass turbofan engines helped rationalize fuel consumption.
People talk about the planes, but it is really the ENGINES that need to be given credit. First generation Soviet widebody Il-86 suffered because S Union did not have the high bypass turbofan technology. Without the modern Pratt JTD9R74 or the GE CF6 or Rolls Royce RB211, jumbo jets like B747 might have needed 6 or 8 engines!

More passengers = more money..right???/ WRONG....wide bodied aircraft means more number of seats hence rise in supply but demand will vary on factors such as policies,fuel costs and operation viability.wide bodied aircraft need to be implemented on routes of flying times greater than two hours at least for operation viability,as big aircraft guzzle more fuel at low altitudes which they will fly at on shorter sectors..

Travelling after the wide body entry and deregulation has become cheaper. They are slightly slower but are economical to operate.
