Hello Everyone,
I have been told that 5 of the EK 777-300s (non ER) will be leaving EK fleet and going to Cathay Pacific afterwards. May I know the registration for those five aircrafts? Million thanks.

The last 5 777 classic frames left are as follows:

EMQ, EMR, EMT, EMV, EMX

2 of which (EMV, EMX) are currently stored at DWC.

Don't know if the deal is still on though. As a side note, the hull written off during the Dubai crash landing was one of the frames originally included in the deal.

I highly doubt Cathay would take planes that old.

Forgive me if this is not the right thread. But would airplanes like ECT have an old ICE system (like non wide screen) because of their age? Or do they get updates during C-check?

They have in the past, and these aircraft are well taken care of, however I do not believe that the deal is still on as I have heard nothing off it for many months.

All ECx frames have digital widescreen except ECB.

Does anybody knows where are EK 777/300ER A6-EBA and A6-EBL? Both are 2-class frames....but they are out of service since a long time.

Some sources tell they will leave the fleet to join "Rossiya Arlines".....together with EBP, EBS and EBT later.

777/200LR A6-EWA seems to be in maintenance and will be the first 777/200LR with Business (2x2x2) and Economy class only.

A6-EBA operated EK805/806 yesterday to/from JED. A6-EBL hasn't flown for a while. Chances are it's being prepared for return to the lessor. Planespotter does claim the frames will be going to Rossiya. Let's see...

I wonder if the insurance payout was better in the end?

A6-EBL is supposedly in Rossiya livery now after being withdrawn from service since 1st Jan.

Meanwhile, A6-EGS, EGJ and ENT in storage.

And A6-END had a little accident at ISB this morning.

​​​​​​Why ENT? That's one of the newer ones isn't it? I've flown it a few times, one of the few regs I recognize immediately
