SO perhaps they're just trying to justify it. But 2years is a long time.. !
Again I don't see it, and I think Slosar is just playing the PR card when he says CX is pursuing A380. The Bird-Flu scare and 2007 market crash have convinced CX that you can't buy planes that relies too heavily on pax volume, but it must have good cargo capacity as well. Which, unfortunately, A380 doesn't fit that bill. I can maybe see CX buying B748 in the future, but definitely not A380.
