I didn't think JFK really needed a third daily service.

Skywards promotion for EK204 (6,000 bonus miles for Y / 12,000 miles for F/J and I remember seeing a double miles promo also) plus the fact that the cheapest JFK-DXB Y fares (not sure about DXB-JFK or other routes) are not valid on EK 202 suggests to me that EK might be having troubling filling EK 204 as an A380.

I have flown EK 204 a few times (admittedly off peak) as a 77W and never saw more than a 70% load.
