#2 Dublin-based Amedeo counts eight A380s among its fleet, and has a further 20 on order from Airbus, but such is the lack of interest in the world's largest passenger plane that it has been unable to renew its leases, or find new customers, despite months of negotiations.

So it has come up with a novel solution: launching its own A380-only airline.
