Do you think they'd consider moving the A380 back onto the Mumbai - Abu Dhabi route? They operate with just about every type of widebody aircraft they have: 77W, A330-3/2, 789, and until they retired them the A346 as well. I fly the route a fair amount and I have seen the J cabin fairly full a decent amount of the time. They had taken the 380 off the route for not being able to fill the premium cabin, but could be possible they are seeing more demand now.
