Central/South America On 10DEC2015, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a Level 1 Travel Warning for Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Panama, Brazil, Columbia, Paraguay, Suriname and Venezuela, advising travelers to protect themselves against the Zika Virus. Zika is a viral disease transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which also carries the dengue and chikungunya viruses.

Chikungunya didn't they have a hit with Tubthumping (I get knocked down) way back in the day?

No issues there. Crew scheduling is capable of assigning PTY to any one trying to get pregnant.

Apparently PTY start date changed to March 31, 2016.

Couldn't be due to a crew shortage? it must be due to all the negative posts here on PPrune impacting on forward bookings.
Those annoying lazy pilots.

And the official story is "awaiting code-share approval"....

Really?
At less than 3 weeks before the world's longest flight takes to the air with a press fanfare and lots of free publicity for The Brand?

It might be more believable if codeshare was spelt correctly.

If you are referring to the added hyphen, that was my mistake. Hyphen or no hyphen, still not believable...

Who cares and what difference does it make to your QOL at EK. Nothing!
