Air France's first Airbus A380 has been rolled out in the airline's new colour scheme as it undergoes final preparation at Airbus' Hamburg plant. The 538-seater will be deployed on the daily Paris Charles de Gaulle-New York JFK route in November.

Air France's configuration, which will be the highest-density layout of any A380 so far put into service, has a mix of 80 business-class and 106 economy-class seats on the upper deck. The lower deck will have nine first-class and 343 economy-class seats. Air France has 12 Engine Alliance GP7200-powered A380s on order.
