EK config
MUFC
The first few EK 380's delivered were 489 seats and mainly destined for
the longer flights (YYZ/SYD etc). This is the same F & J layout as the
517 but less economy. Note the EK website does now mention a 600
seat two class HD density (but not on offer yet).
Apparently they already have at least three 517 seat aircraft in 14/76/427
config and they operate mainly the LHR & Saudi routes (probably CDG aswell).
I know Heathrow do in fact get a mix and I am sure a 489 seater is en route
CDG now but you need to know reggies to be sure which ones are which.
Three out of the next five to be delivered are 517 configs per another
forum.
In spotters there is a post stating the 13th EK 380 has now flown.
