British Airways said it will operate its first Airbus A380 superjumbo to Los Angeles, with the second plane serving Hong Kong.

Tickets went on sale on Tuesday for flights to California from October 15 and the Asian city starting November 15, the International Consolidated Airlines Group unit said.

British Airways is due to receive the first of 12 A380s in July, with deliveries progressing through 2016. The inaugural trips may come earlier than the dates given today, depending on when preliminaries are completed, the London-based carrier said. The airline has unveiled its first superjumbo's interiors.
