It's not the annoyance, just the frustration that having had it's birthday in June and being the most likely candidate for A380 services to regional Britain in the short to medium term, EK uses such an aircraft to BHX "unprofitably" instead of MAN (slight hint: MAN 40,000 pax on EK in June, BHX 34,000, with an apparent 7% point difference in loads).
Remember they've swapped the BHX 77W and the LHR A380 around. Not totally logical given the likely booking patterns for them.
Has anyone got any details of what BHX has done in terms of taxiways, etc?
