Part of the expansion plans include making DXB-MAN double daily.
In ord er to do this, supplementing the current A330 will be a 777-200 operating DXB-MAN-LAX, subject to govt. approval (remember how long it took for Olympic to go thru all the red tape, only never to start the service).
Subject to the above, the plan is intended to become reality by the end of 2001.
