The Airbus A380 is the world’s largest civil passenger aircraft. It feels like this giant of the skies only flies long-haul routes, but that is just a feeling; in fact, it can fly short-haul routes as well.

And here is proof: Emirates recently announced a new shortest route, with a total flight time of only 1 hour and 45 minutes. This route covers flight EK857 from Dubai to Kuwait and flight EK858 from Kuwait to Dubai. Starting July 28, the aircraft operating this route will change from a Boeing 777-300 to an A380, featuring 14 First Class seats, 76 Business Class seats, and 399 Economy Class seats.

Additionally, Emirates currently holds the record for the world’s longest A380 route—the Dubai to Los Angeles route. However, starting September 29, 2014, Qantas will deploy the A380 on the Sydney to Dallas/Fort Worth route, which will then become the world’s longest A380 route.
