Yeah was surprised to see the additional section, always quiet in the new end. The staff are always friendly and obliging. Spoke to the floor manager, they seem to think the expansion is in preparation for taking A380, fingers crossed! the usual EK gate is A380 ready with upper deck jetbridge. Perhaps they would put it on EK408/409, since they ve 5th freedom rights on the KUL-MEL sector.
