Hong Kong also gets some new A380 love from 18 February to 6 April: catch it on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays as SQ860 (Singapore-Hong Kong) and SQ863 (Hong Kong-Singapore)
As of 8 April 2018 it will switch to Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays as SQ856 (Singapore-Hong Kong) and SQ861 (Hong Kong-Singapore).

They literally just started. There's Tokyo, Mumbai, Shanghai, Beijing, Delhi, New York/Frankfurt, and more London flights, not to mention temporary A380 services to cities to MEL.

No new SQ A380s for Tokyo as yet, the comment above lists the cities currently served by Singapore Airlines' A380s, not the new ones.

The A380 won't come to ADL... At least not on SQ's watch. Maybe EK will send them there ;-)

In your dreams as far as SIA is concerned. I think we are stuck with the A330-300

They will most likely change to their 78Js with the new regional seats sometime in 2019

Delighted! Nice old plane. Four engines. Easy to drive. Maybe convert to solar power later.

Gold Coast getting ILS is a gamechanger.50,000 super rich Arabs land every July/August and have done religiously for a decade now (to escape 50c+)..now there is zero risk of diversion to BrisVegas, lookout for Gold Coast A380 seasonal flights from Emirates/Etihad/ChinaMegas...its as if they've discovered fun for the first time...Burqa clad Women riding scooters along with 8 year olds at the wheel tearing up the Oceanway & Cavill Av! ...politely of course! A380 will be the next push after Commonwealth Games Apr 4-15. Airlines will start to think outside the square....Honolulu...Majorca....Bali....Cancun....Nice....all ripe for seasonal A380s.
