People are still sour that Newcastle "stole" the 777 from Prestwick?

I too hope that India and China become more realistic A380 markets in the next 10/20 years and keep it going. Although I have a feeling the A380 could end up the Concorde of the 21st century

Emirates has just announced an order for another 36 A380's.

Is this the programme saving order that Airbus have been waiting for?

Quite simple. It's elevation is about 7300ft lower than MEX, which means a 77L/77W/A380 could fly direct CUN-DXB, whereas they can't do MEX-DXB

It's pretty safe to say the only reason EK don't...

They'd be shooting themselves in the foot there because I believe Mexican passengers flying MEX-DXB/MEX-DXB-XXX would require an American visa if the aircraft touches down on American soil

What is the reasoning behind BKK, LIS and FCO? Also surprising to see seasonal reduction to OSL, do you know why? Just low demand or A/C shortage?

Could anyone provide a full list of EK's current A340 300 and 777 300 routes (and possibly the end date if applicable, i.e the A343 to KBL ends 01/12/2016)? I'm aiming to get on them this year before...

I would say Kathmandu, Detroit, Mexico City and maybe Helsinki are all destinations that would serve Emirates well and seem strange that they don't fly there yet

So you live and work in the UAE? My ambition is to work as a pilot for EK one day, what's it like out there?

When did the other 3 A345's and other 772 leave the fleet? Last I saw about a month ago it was 8 A345, 2 772. There are a few less A332's as well.

Does anybody know the status of EK's wifi? All A380's and 777's were supposed to have it by about now, or be well on the way, but AFAIK, new 777's aren't being delivered with it. A380's are.
