Seychelles island was on the cards some time ago and AAB mentioned this in Berlin which also came in media.
To my knowledge,only airline having services between Europe and the S.island is Air seychells.if QR starts operation this would without a doubt, be a very lucretive sector.
On the other hand,EK has been trying to get landing rights to the island for long time and the seychells Gov.. has not granted them any hope yet.
