According to an article here VS is looking to delay the arrival of the A380 until Summer 2009, because they want it to come into service during a summer season. Because of the recent 6 month delay, the arrival of the planes would start in Winter 2008.

I have a feeling this may not be their entire reason for doing so, but it's annoying nevertheless. Reminder that this may not happen, since they are "looking" into doing this.

Well the Flight International people are very well respected and have very good sources. Might make sense to me, the costs will be phenominal so why not start paying as the max revenues come in?

I'm sure the Flight International people have got their facts right, giving out incorrect info is not their style!:D
