Thai Airways' first Airbus A380 completed its maiden flight on 6 March following the completion of its airframe assembly and system tests at the Airbus facility in Toulouse, France.
The aircraft landed in Hamburg, Germany after a four-hour flight. It will now undergo painting and its cabin will be installed, said Thai.
The aircraft entered the final assembly line in Toulouse in November last year.
