San Paulo is definately being cut T.God! bad luck for the South Americans...I wonder will they still be required now? However, we now have Durban which will be like a Bombay...(if you know the profile of Durban passengers....I am sure we are Air India in secret).
I have also heard A380 crew were being put back on main fleet. I also heard from a trainer that several newly arrived batches were sent back home...yes, really.
I so agree the A380 should never have seen the light of day.
Keep Recovering.
