Am I right in saying that by 2017 the only Airbus aircraft EK will be operating will be the A380?

Apart from the 319 which is not usually listed, it certainly looks like it.

It is just as true that the only Boeing aircraft that EK will be operating in the near future is the 777? That should simplify things a bit.

Looks like EK is really ramping up to go head-to-head with EY.

777-200LR

Does anyone know if these planes have been retrofitted with the new ice screens?

All the 77L have the first generation of ICE Digital Widescreen similar to the first A380's which may be over 9 years old now but I believe still one of the best IFE systems out there IMHO. I'm pretty sure there are no plans to retrofit any older aircraft with the latest ICE.

First 77W retirement schedule

According to emirates247, Emirates will be retired 1 of their 77W along with 25 other aircraft. Which plane will EK retires their first 77W? Heard the oldest one is A6-EBB and the other older one were EBA, EBC-EBJ or the other one in 2006-2007 made one?
