Can you shed a bit more light on this? I can't find any evidence that there are that many fatalities related to that plane, at least related to its operations in flight. Seems like there are few or if my quick look shows even zero fatalities related to it flying. You wrote "associated" but can you define what you mean by that? During manufacturing, maintenance and other non-flight-related incidents?
replyThat was a mistake on my part those are A320 numbers not A380.
replyAh, gotcha. Probably not supposed to reply with this, but applaud your quick correction!
reply> The airbus A380 family is associated with 1,490 fatalities…
replyWhat? The A380 has never had a single fatality or even injuries.

Airbus (and Boeing) has a decade-long backlog. They absolutely do. https://flightplan.forecastinternational.com/2026/04/14/airb...
A380? Did you mean A320?
replyYes, corrected remembered the fatalities but should have looked it up anyway.
