Redundancy for the 744 won't happen. Displacing from the A380 would be cheaper than the cost of replacing everyone from below due to the cascading upwards effect. Probably 2 courses run to displace, 5 or 6 to replace after a redundancy. If someone want to stir the pot, they'd be better off retiring.
And in truth, I'd much rather they offer redundancy, but I'm almost positive they won't.
