The aircraft will also fly to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou where residents will have chance to see the double-decker aircraft.
China Southern Airlines has ordered five A380 aircraft, two of which will be delivered before 2008, and will be put into service prior to the Beijing Olympics.
Airbus A380 has received 159 orders from 16 airlines in the world. More than 50 percent of the orders come from Asia.

Now this plane is only a cargo plane. The Airbus 380 can lift off with 1.23 million pounds or 560,000 kg. This plane is a passenger plane that can carry 550 passengers.
