The Airbus A380, first introduced in October 2007 by Singapore Airlines for its Sydney route, was embraced by 15 airlines over the years. However, six of these airlines have halted their A380 services to the United States: Air France, China Southern, Etihad Airways, HiFly (for Norwegian), Qatar Airways, and Singapore Airlines.
Air France, China Southern, and HiFly have withdrawn the A380 entirely, while Qatar Airways has not maintained a regular A380 route to the US. Although Etihad and Singapore Airlines continue to use the plane for other destinations, only Etihad is currently flying it to the US, a service set to end by June 23, after which the aircraft will serve Toronto.
Air France commenced its A380 flights to the US in 2009, serving various routes until 2020. China Southern operated its last A380 service to Los Angeles in early 2022. Etihad will conclude its last US A380 flights this June.
