The Airbus A380 made its first appearance in Canada in the form of an Emirates Airlines flight from Dubai landing at Toronto Pearson on Monday June 1, 2009. The plane can seat 14 in first class, 76 in business, and 399 in economy. The flight will operate 3 times weekly. (Due to the aviation agreement between Canada and the U.A.E., the limited 7 weekly flights are shared between Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways and Dubai-based Emirates). The A380 is an upgrade over the B777 service previously; and the A380 itself was previously scheduled on the Dubai-New York route. On the same day, Emirates also inaugurated A380 service to Bangkok.
