This is from a similar question somtime last year...

From the Airbus website, one can deduce that they've had 129 ordrs for the A380 from Singapore Airlines (10 - launch customer), Malaysian (6), Emirates (43), Virgin (6), Lufthansa (15), Qantas (12), FedEx (10), ILFC (a leasing company - 10), Korean Air (5), Qatar (2)and Air France (10). Etihad have signed a Memo of Understanding to order 4.

I believe they may have had another order since that post too...

I'm confused-there's no freakin way one airline ordered 129 A380s.

Beefhole, if you look at the post again you''ll see that after each airline ther's a bracketed number, which is the number ordered by the particular airline, eg Singapore, the launch customer with 10 orders..
