I'd like to see the A330neo... I'd like to see the A350, I'm not so bothered about the 7810

I don't understand how they intend to serve the really small markets with a 300+ seater, like terciary or quarternary cities on the Indian subcontinent/CIS/Europe etc.

i.e if emirates wanted to serve Belfast or Exeter or Aberdeen, I can't see a daily 300+ being viable as the smallest option (maybe from Belfast), but one day EK will more than likely be looking to serve these cities. Personally I would argue the case for a "mainline" version of Flydubai using A321neoLR. If Singapore airlines can make it work with Singapore/Silkair/Tigerair I can't see why emirates couldn't. They are in no position to do it now, however with the constraints at DXB.
