All A6-EBx 2-class frames have been officially removed from service. Only one aircraft with non widescreen IFE and no touchscreen controls remains in service, A6-ECB.
Once that is retired, the oldest 2-class frames (2010 deliveries) will be A6-ECY and ECZ, both of which feature ICE widescreen.

11 out of the remaining 15 A6-EBx aircraft are leased from GECAS.
Seeing as how EK is expecting deliveries of 777-9s next year, and A330-900neos to start in 2021, they might start retiring the older 3-class 77Ws around the same time.
