A380 @ lax

[FlyingPhotog]

Does Qantas fly the A380 into LAX on Saturdays? I am thinking of flying in just to do a little spotting, but a Saturday (March 7th) would be the best day to do it.

Thanks!

No. Checked Qantas.com, just 744s on that day. Too bad, I would like to see it myself but I keep missing it. This might help. March 1st, 4th, and 6th at 9:50am.

Wednesdays are the best as you get 2 of them within a 1.5hr span. I have been at LAX for the last few days and saw both yesterday. The first arrived on the South Complex, the second on the North Complex.
