Description
Exclusive and limited Aircraft Skin Tag Edition of the first Airbus A380 of the airline, the A6-EDA.
During its service, the former Emirates Airbus A380 A6-EDA visited 62 airports from Abu Dhabi to Zurich, and 380 tags were created for each airport the aircraft visited. The front side of each tag remains the same throughout the series, displaying that the aircraft completed 6,319 landings at 62 different airports. It also indicates that the aircraft was in service from August 2008 to April 2020, carrying 2.1 million passengers and flying a total of 55,863 hours (equivalent to 6.37 years).
Although they share a common front side, each set of 380 tags has a unique back side that is either grey or green. Inside, collectors will find information about their specific destination. For example, the LAX-tag reveals that the aircraft first visited Los Angeles International Airport on August 5, 2008. This side also displays the destination to which the tag belongs, along with its serial number out of a total of 380.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these items will benefit the Emirates Airline Foundation.
Note: Every tag is unique. Depending on the plane, tags may vary in terms of haptics, material thickness and colour. Small blemishes bear witness to the plane’s long history and are an authentic reminder of its glory days over the clouds. Small scratches, flaky paint and imperfections are totally normal and give our Aviationtags their unique charm – the charm of a vintage product crafted from upcycled materials. These quirks are not the result of the production process, they simply reflect the state of the aircraft material we use when it was extracted. The original aircraft paint of this edition is rather sensitive, so please take good care of your tag!
