BHX-2 class

First is not bookable after 31st December so I assume it is a glitch in the list, not in the fare availability.

[Seljuk22]

Edit done on the list. DXB-BHX will be 3 daily B77W with 2-class from 1st January 2016.

No date for 3rd daily A380 to MAN and rumoured A380 to DUB so far.

Up to now those 4 routes are with 2-class A380 (aicrafts A6-EOP - A6-EOS)

Any news on the fourth LGW flight?

[True Blue]

are they planning a 4th Lgw flight or are you just speculating?

TB

[EK77WNCL]

If speculation, I wonder if a 4th LGW flight or a STN flight would be more likely

"BKK (1st December)
03:30-12:35 16:00-19:55"

Really useful info-I am booked on the BKK/DXB sector in January so I have gone into MMB and changed the seats.
