Touching down in Glasgow at 12.45pm on Sunday (26 March), the aircraft has been refurbished as part of the carrier’s $2 billion retrofit programme.
LAH Travel owner Linda Hill Miller told TTG the A380 was “such a fabulous aircraft to have in Scotland”.
“Bringing it back to Glasgow for the season just proves Emirates’ commitment to the industry,” she said. “And they [Emirates] need it because the flights are full.”
Emirates said it had decided to reinstate the A380, after halting operations for almost four years, due to a surge in demand for its Glasgow-Dubai service.
