The A380s have seats in business class that become fully flat, where as the ones on the 777s are not fully flat (at a slight angle). So to answer your question, None.

On most routes you'd be unlucky but for shoter hops you sometimes play roulette.

Aircraft Code 38R in Expertflyer
My Emirates flight from Dubai to Hong King in F in February is showing as Aircraft type 38R.
As the Fleet guide only details 38L or 38M is 38R just a mistake on Expertflyer or some newer version of the A380?

On the date mentioned, the seat map for EK382 shows these seats, whereas the seat map for EK380 does not.
I suspect the new codes (there should be one for both LH and ULH) differentiate between these.

Actually EK have 4 diferent A380 cabin layout:
ULH Fleet:
F14 C76 Y399 and F14 C76 Y401
LH Fleet:
F14 C76 Y427 and F14 C76 Y429
Soon they will have one more cabin layout when they get the A380 with C + Y only.
