What’s the biggest plane that still flies commercial today, like the largest jet still flying passengers?
The biggest passenger plane still flying commercially today is the Airbus A380.
Key facts about the Airbus A380:
Height: 79 feet (24.1 meters)Wingspan: 261.8 feet (79.8 meters)
Length: 238.6 feet (72.7 meters)
Maximum takeoff weight: Over 1.2 million pounds (560,000 kg)
Passenger capacity: Up to 853 in an all-economy configuration, but typically configured for 500–600 passengers in a three-class setup.
Although Airbus stopped producing the A380 in 2021 due to lower-than-expected demand, airlines like Emirates, Singapore Airlines, British Airways, and Qatar Airways still operate it on long-haul routes, especially between major international hubs.
