I wonder how long it will take to get 500+ people on and off that plane?

They did a four hour test run and loaded it up with technical equipement...That is still not the same as people.
That big monster is going to suck up a lot of fuel. In order to composaite for the fuel used, their flights need to be sold out.

This is interesting...
Airbus A380 Faces Weight Problems Just six months from the start of test flights, and less than a year before its first scheduled public flight, the Airbus A380 is still overweight by as much as 4 metric tons. The excess weight would hurt aircraft efficiency, resulting in financial penalties to Airbus. Engineers, however, are still working to shave weight off of the plane. About 25 percent of the A380 is made from composites, including carbon/epoxy and Glare, and fiberglass/aluminum laminate. How about closing down the upper deck?
