With China Southern now taking delivery of the A380s and having a total order of 5 of these birds, is there ever a chance that the US east coast would see China Southern flights?

I'd say your chances are most likely in LAX

Cathay, Singapore, China Air, Air China and Delta simply kick a$$ in NY so China Southern would have to have some pretty good reasons to fly here, even in a Learjet, never mind an A380... but then again, I have no clue how much more capacity is out there :cool:

I just flew into Shanghai from Xi'an on Sunday and saw the A380 sitting at the gate. As I walked up, it was pushing back and I didn't get any clear shots.
