UAE’s national carrier, Etihad Airways, announced yesterday plans to deploy its superjumbo Airbus A380 to Tokyo starting June 16 next year.

The double-deck aircraft will operate between Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi and Narita International Airport just in time for the peak summer travel season.

The move marks the return of Etihad’s eighth A380 to service, expanding its long-haul footprint across Asia.
