All of the 50-odd A380s that EK have on order are RR powered. I can't see any more EA powered A380s ever being built.
I understand that the engine competition has been re-opened because a) performance of the T900 thus far in failing to achieve promised fuel burn and reliability targets and b) EA making very aggressive bid.
