Crewmeal,
Not sure about EK funding the runway extension for A380s. It can operate off the current runway direct as the one did that came
Thre passenger load was held at a 77W in case the A380 was cancelled or went tech.Its only for flights more than 7 hours that will need the extension.
Can't believe the number of posts Im seeing about poor figures at BHX leading to EK demise here. The last two sets of figures both showed increases and the official July figures are not yet released.
So lets wait and see what happens the next few months before BHX is written off.
