EK A380 delayed
http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2009/...s_7109867.html
I heard EK has been delayed A380 deliveries due to financial costly. So I am not aware about EK want to be increase more ordered A380-900 or 800 series. Let's the speculations on that one.

Does anybody know how many A380's Emirates have taken delivery of during 2009 so far ? The news on new additions seem to have stopped.
I'm sure I read somewhere that the plan was for 5-6 to be added to the fleet.

Two conflicting stories that represent the style of EK media relations: they want to delay the delivery of the A380 and in the same story they mentioned that they want to order more A380

EK aren't the ones who want to delay the deliveries. Airbus is delaying deliveries because of persistent problems at their end.

There have been some rumors that the 6th and 7th A380 have been delayed until February. I still believe they will be delivered in December 2009, the 8th A380 may be delayed to February 2010.
