Only in a positive way, as Emirates is establishing Senegal airlines

Excellent!! I'm glad to see EK has done extremely very well. Why EK will have 2 A380 out of DXB-BKK-HKG & DXB-HKG nonstop? I dont think ever 2 A380 is already served to HKG. Only 1 A380 should have enough for now. I think DXB-BKK-HKG will downgrading from A380 to 77W aircraft.

I don't know, I travel on a monthly basis on the 384/385 between DXB and BKK and the flights are always complete fully booked. ( good for the free upgrades from business to first class ^ )
I don't know what the load is between BKK and HKG but between BKK and DXB it is almost 100%.

New update

Dubai - Johannesburg EK765/766 27MAR11 to 31JUL11 Boeing 777-300ER replaced by:

343 Day x1
345 Day 1

345 replace planned 332

Wow! Unbelievable!! Always 100% percents full for everyday. That's lots of the passengers capacity on entire A380. I do believe those routes should be done extremely performance very well. Do they have any new A380 routes from DXB lately? I do knows where EK will expected 3 more A380 delivery in 3rd & 4th quarters 2011.

emirates777, can you please tell us if there are any plans to add a new destination to africa this year or to new countries in asia (cambodia, laos, vietnam, taiwan, burma or kazakhstan) and are there any plans for ek to return to baku, azerbaijan.
thank you very much!!!

Yes there are destinations in Africa, Americas, Asia and elsewhere on the short list for the 2011/12 operating plan. But they are not all guaranteed to start as the plan gets revised as demand dictates. A number of of countries you mentioned are in the long term plan. As for Baku - i don't think it will feature in the 2011/12 operating plan.

thank you very much!!!

According to this thread, EK380/381 will now be an A380 through to March 1st.

Yes that is correct that EK380/381 will now operate with A380 equipment through to 1 Mar, but be warned that as soon as approval is received it will be switched to EK302/303 DXB-PVG-DXB.

Thread Clean-Up
 

I was hoping after a few gentle reminders this thread would right itself, so to speak.

Obviously not. It continued to drift off-topic, included personal attacks, racial generalisations and a whole lot of coaching from the sidelines.

I have reviewed each and every post and deleted/edited as appropriate. It is now I believe, strictly on topic and it is where it will stay. Please.

Algiers
 

Hi everybody

This is my first message :-) I am particularly interested in Algiers since my wife is Algerian... Is there any update on when Emirates would start to fly to Algiers ?

Regards.

Oceania
 

Emirates777 are there plans to increase flights to Oceania or to introduce a couple of new routes (Adelaide, Nadi, ...)?

Not aware of anything for the 2011/12 operating plan however long term these destinations will eventually join the network.

Emirates777 thanks for answering my question regards STN a few pages back.

Latest email from Tim Clark states significant expansion into North and South America over the next 2-3 years. It doesn't state any specific destinations but a good guide as to the direction the company is going in.
