A380 Deplaning question

Could someone please confirm which A380 door is used to deplane Y (main deck) passengers in DXB? Is it the exit farthest at the front or the one between rows 50 and 52?

Parents have a tight 75 min connection and I want to seat them as close to the exit as possible to give them a chance of making the next flight specially if there are delays.

Cheers

I was seated on row 41 (Emergency exit row) a few days ago from MAN to DXB and used that door to exit. However, I'm pretty sure the next exit down was also opened as I met some passengers who were seated a few rows back which made it before me in the tunnel to the airport.

It is the first two doors, so the front most and the one after the first block of seats. You're out quicker if seated along the left aisle.

I'm going to find out as I'm just waiting for EK380 in the lounge, departing to HKG, on board the latest A380: A6-EDO!

Is Row 41 an exit or is it a bulkhead with toilet in front of it?

There is no exit down from there - you're already at the pointy end.
