Hi Fly today officially introduces its new Airbus A380 to the industry revealing its special coral - themed livery. The aircraft will be showcased at Farnborough Airshow 2018 from the 19^th to the 22^nd of July where visitors will have the chance to see it firsthand.

The arrival is a major event for the Company, making it the 4^th European airline operating the model, the 14^thglobal operator and the first leasing airline to fly the aircraft.

This first A380 will be operating worldwide and will be powered by one of the most reliable engines in the world, the Rolls Royce Trent 900 model, with 471 seats distributed between three classes. The main deck has the First class for 12 passengers and Economy class for 311 passengers while the upper deck has Business and Economy class seats carrying 60 and 88 passengers respectively. In a high density version, the aircraft can carry up to 853 passengers.

Hi Fly’s A380 is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and truly luxurious cabin interiors. Each seat will have its own in-seat IFE system by Panasonic eX2 providing the passengers with great in-flight entertainment options and an optimized user experience.

Moreover, the performance of the A380 goes in line with Hi Fly’s environmental commitments. By producing only about 75 grams of CO2 per passenger kilometer, the A380 minimizes greenhouse gas emissions being capable of carrying more people with less impact on the environment. Apart from its incomparable efficiency, it also has the quietest and smoothest ride making it a true favorite for both airlines and passengers.

Hi Fly decided to take this exceptional opportunity to support Mirpuri Foundation’s new campaign “Save the Coral Reefs”. Ready to fly the globe, Hi Fly’s A380 exhibits a strong statement that clearly illustrates the importance of the cause and the urgency to act. The aircraft features two very dissimilar sides: one side in dark blue displaying destroyed corals contrasting with a light blue side representing a pristine ocean with colourful and healthy marine life. With this initiative Hi Fly aims to amplify the campaign’s impact by reaching all corners on earth and inspiring the change of collective behaviours.
