    I’ve flown on the A380 several times and it is a very comfortable flight. Especially noise levels, which are much less than smaller passenger planes.

      I’ve flown on it as well, and the quietness is really remarkable.

      While all other passenger planes are smaller than the A380, it’s also far quieter than other very large passenger planes like the 747 and 777. Other modern designs making significant use of composites like the A350 and 787 are also not nearly so quiet.
