Andrew Parker, senior vice-present for Emirates Airlines, poses inside the shower in the first class bathroom and spa aboard an Emirates Airbus A380 during a “familiarization flight” for media and people in the airline and travel industry over the coast of southern California on August 5, 2008. The shower is tall enough for a passenger up to 6′ 3″ (185 cm) tall and the spa is cleaned by an attendant after each passenger uses it. Emirates is bringing its A380 to major cities in the US for “familarization” visits. The A380 is the world’s largest airliner with 49 percent more floor space and 35 percent more seating than the previous largest aircraft.
