Sir Tim Clark: We are in the process of [starting A380 retirements]. Two have been deactivated. They are under retirement because weve got a major overhaul coming up and its best to take the old aircraft out theyre all written down and take the gear off them rather than buy a $25 million main landing gear. I need two, possibly three, to meet that [overhaul] requirement.
Anyone know the frames that have been retired?

SEA is tricky as it usually gets the older seat with some new ones sprinkled in. The last few weeks have consistently been the new(ish) lie flat seat so there is more hope than I would have had a couple months back but there's always the chance you'll get the old seat as it's easy to make a aircraft swap. Earliest you will know is when the aircraft leaves DXB on the day of travel. So as the previous poster said, expect the old and hope for the new.

This is ALSO one of the 6 77W to be retired and part of 6 aircraft of EK to be withdrawn this year.
