I checked. You're right. I stand corrected. Airports need only minor
landing strip modifications (relocation of lights, etc.) to

The plane is still built by the perfidious Frence, though.

Runways are only part of the of the requirement.

Concourse, boarding gates, baggage handling, etc require serious
upgrades in order to handle the increased passenger load carried by
the 380.
