Upgrades on the 380 cancelled till the end of this financial year for now, but under review on a weekly basis, in part due to a shortage of FO's, so nobody can be released for upgrade for the moment.
40 380 Trainers stood down from training to fly the line, due to a shortage of line captains.
With no fo's to release for upgrade and no trainers to train them...it seems like the company will have a bit of an issue. Training mentioned the plan for now is 777 DEC so that some current 777 cpt's can transfer across to the 380.
Yeah that's more like what I've been hearing. Guys interviewing at the moment being told courses in the New Year. Not heard anything about DEC though, hope not but maybe inevitable.
Cheers
