Air freight ALWAYS makes more money per mile than passenger revenues .............
You'd think that the airlines flying the A380s that they are pulling out of service would reconfig those to freight and put those back in.. or have someone like FDX, UPS, or DHL buy them in the after market, convert them over, and they're in business along with Airbus putting together an A350F..
The Airbus A380 has all the prerequisites for cargo conversions on paper. However, the aircraft is too heavy and too costly to operate compared to other cargo aircraft conversions.
