9L/27R is the 1st runway on the south side of the field from the terminal. That is the runway it will take off on, and would be the preferred landing runway.

I just re-looked at the Taxi Routes, Look like the A380 can only land on the southside of the field, 9L/27R 9R/28L 10/28, without ground control hold taxi traffic for a Huge part of the terminal area.

Well, they brought it in from the west, then to the south of the airport, and according to Flightradarnow, it landed on 27L and is taxiing off the end now.

Yeah the takeoff was so quiet, and it got up in the air pretty quickly. Did you know the plane was only 4 days old.
