"as far as I'm aware the first planned delivery date for the BA A380's has never been '10, it's always been 2012, and there has yet to be any announcement as to which route these aircraft will be deployed on."
BA issued a press release - widely reported and easy to google - in September 2007 on 2010 receipt of first A380s and expected routes -maybe the
PR department got a bit carried away or was it a Virgin spoiler? I seem to recall BA telling the world that IFE would be available in all seats long-haul to compete with Virgin - probably about 5 times over 10 years before it actually happened.
