Mainly lighter and bigger. The internal structure has changed slightly, but nothing drastic. And as I said before, the wing is smoother, not just to the touch, but when you look at it you can see there are less rivets. Transportation is the biggest change, we fly the A330 wings out to France on a Beluga from the nearby airport. The 380's have to be driven on a monster 100 wheel trailer to the nearest dock, and then loaded onto a specially built barge to cross to the Continent.
