Don't worry, A380 cannot fly to Indian airport just like that. Until our airports are ugraded, no airline will fly A380 to India. Even Singapore's Changi Airport jad to spend $60 million to upgrade their existing facilities to handle A380. This included bigger lounges and provision of a separate aerobridge for the upper deck to facilitate quick boarding and deboarding. Presently, only Calicut airport is geared to receive A380.

Hyderabad's Shamshabad is the biggest Airport in the country today. Equally bigger will be the New Bangalore airport which will be inaugurated shortly.

Hyderabad's new operational RGIA Airport is equipped to handle the A380 given that this airport has the longest runway in SE Asia alongwith terminal facilities to receive the A380. So it will be very soon within the next 2 - 3 years that we can see at least 2 or 3 A380's fly in the Indian skies.
