Temporarily, they cycle them in and out, as pointed out most likely to do with maintenance schedules. Given the fleet size I wouldn't be surprised if they've also got a shortage of maintenance capacity so they schedule the aircraft that get placed in storage based on the next 3 months maintenance schedule so optimize capacity

Rossiya upcoming 77W from EK.
Routesonline confirmed that Rossiya will began flying 77W from May of this year and these planes will be delivered till September 2018. The plane I realized will be (32706, 32709, 32715, 32730 and 33501). I see 32709 is already painted and 32706, 33501 on their way for paint soon. 32715 and 32730 is still flying and likely till July of this year.

Yes they have already, EBA is now presumed to have been painted to Rossiya livery along with number 33501 (ex A6-EBD, VP-BIN). As I mention just earlier then, No 32715, 32730 is still active till July 2018. I don't think 32710 will go to Rossiya.

Does anyone know what kind of 777-300 Emirates is flying from EWR->ATH? I have a business-class flight in early October, and I'm curious if it'll get the new business seats. Is there a place online where I can see exactly which kind of 777-300 Emirates is flying?
Thanks.
Thanks.

You can always check here The EK Source - Emirates Airline Route Tracker.. Not a single flight to my knowledge has had the new J on this route. New J odds are excellent from IAH and DFW (and now FLL on the reconfigured 77L), good chance from BOS and ORD, SEA and MCO once in a while. EWR gets the older ULR 77W's
Yeah looks like Newark has all the older aircraft
. I'm looking at airfleets.net and it looks like anything made after A6-EPY has the new business class. Is Emirates planning on getting any more new 777s in 2018?

The easy way to tell is that these will have 306 or 312 Economy seats as opposed to 304/310 (although there are no 312 seat ones yet). The new Business Class seats were introduced at the same time.

EK postponed the delivery of some A380 last year.....it was published everywhere.
A6-EUS, EUT and EUV were also stored during a couple of months, but they have been finally delivered.
The last two in storage, A6-EUU and A6-EUW shall be delivered this year.
