I know, I was just speculating that they maybe got two free A380's to go with the XWB order again. Sir Clark always said he was going to try, and get a better deal

Do you have a source of this? Where you did get info from? Is that only 2 A380?

From now (April 13, 2016) until the end of 2017, Emirates will retire 30 older aircraft from our fleet. At the same time, to meet our growth expectations, we will receive delivery of 24 new Boeing 777, and 33 new A380 aircraft including these two additional A380 aircraft just ordered.

It looks like A6-EKT A330-243 MSN 293 is the next aircraft to be withdrawn from the fleet.

My guess is that EKT has entered DXB maintenance for strip down and will not return to service. If that is the case, then only 9 are left, along with 4 A340-300s, which will all leave the fleet this year. The 6 777-200ERs and the first 2 777-300s will also leave the fleet this year.
