Which Airbus aircraft is known for its capability to carry around 500 passengers?

The Airbus A380 is uniquely designed as a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine aircraft specifically engineered for high-capacity long-haul travel, making it the largest passenger airliner in the world. It typically accommodates around 500 passengers in a standard three-class configuration, but can carry even more in an all-economy setup, reaching capacities of over 800 passengers. This remarkable passenger-carrying capacity distinguishes the A380 from other aircraft in Airbus's lineup, which generally accommodate fewer passengers.

In contrast, while the A340, A330, and A350 are all capable airliners with various seating capacities, none of these models is designed to reach the A380's scale. The A340 and A330 serve mid to long-range routes with varying capacities around the 250 to 300 ranges, while the A350, although efficient and modern, also seats fewer than the A380, usually in the range of 300 to 410 passengers depending on the model and configuration. Thus, the A380 stands out for its ability to transport a much larger number of passengers on international routes.
