Up to this moment, only Virgin Atlantic has confirmed of flying A380 on London-Hong Kong-Sydney... But due to the earlier delay on delivery, Virgin Atlantic is now not expecting their first A380 until late 2008, so they should be putting the A380 on the route by early 2009 if everything goes as planned...
Theoritically, the fares should be driven down with the introduction of the A380 as this would provide around 200 additional seats per day on the route... Having said that, as the number of Hong Kong students studying in Australia is increasing dreamically every year, so by 2009 I believe the fare wont be down by much as the demand would be at a even higher level and just 200 more seats a day is not enough...
Having said that, during the next 2 years, if airlines decide to increase the number of flights along with Virgin Atlantic upgrade to A380, then the supply of seats on the route would increase by far which could stable the fare if not drive it down... BUT sadly, there is not plan as yet to increase capacity on the route until Virgin Atlantic introduce A380 into their fleet...

For Qantas, they will be receiving their first from 2008... But they will use it mainly on Sydney-Los Angeles flights... And maybe Sydney-London later, for Qantas, they are only flying Melbourne-Hong Kong-London now...

So for Qantas to fly Sydney-Hong Kong with A380 is not very likely... But for Melbourne-Hong Kong-London, they dont have a piority on using A380... So not likely they will get before 2009 when Virgin Atlantic will fly A380 on the route...

Newest update is Virgin Atlantic will defer their delivery of A380 by 4years to 2013... And they are planning to begin a second London-Sydney flight to cover the demand later and most likely via Hong Kong...

Richard Branson's Virgin Atlantic said on Thursday, 26Nov, it was pushing back delivery of its first Airbus A380 superjumbo by four years, giving the planemaker time to sort out problems encountered in wiring the mammoth planes.

Virgin said it still intended to take delivery of all six of the USD$300 million planes it has on order, but now would not see its first one until 2013.

However, you can try to fly Singapore Airlines from Singapore to Sydney as SQ is still the first one to operate A380 but still have to wait...

We cannot say anything until SQ starting flying A380. I could say "big capacity does not mean cheaper ticket" as you can see if some airlines change to use B744 instead of A330 or B777 on some routes. Their ticket fares remains the same due to the airline adding capacity for the high demand routing(s) or sometimes even higher due to peak season.

Virgin will have 3 more extra flights per week LHR-HKG in Nov. Daily LHR-HKG in Apr07

機票唔會平﹐因為成本都係甘上下貴﹐只係將兩班機合埋一班(兩架747-400)。雖然機師少左﹐但要既flight attendant多左﹐再加上佢買A380要用將來既revenue黎補番﹐所以價錢唔會平得去邊。A380又再delay﹐我估計2009年先會有第一班flight係載客。你都係搭住747-400先啦﹗
