You must be looking at old information then. CKY can no longer be booked after next week and the flight numbers for DKR change to EK797/798.

No, I can still book it online. Maybe check to see if you can book it with EK over the phone.

Once more, the CKY flights have been removed from the system and the DKR flights have been renumbered. This change has come through in all of the international reservation systems I have looked at. CKY can no longer be booked after 09APR and the destination will therefore most likely be removed from the network unless some other change is in the works.

Yes, you still book a ticket online. Go ahead. You don't have to call.

Yes, I just saw that I am now no longer able to book a flight.

Why have they suspended the flight? Are they going to reinstate it?

I guess the same reason as CRK; EK make no money on the flight to CKY.
But DKR will continue; starting in july, DKR will be upgauged to the 77W!

Anyone kow why DFW got the A380 and not IAH? Cause there is more cargo demand to IAH?

Switch from B77L to A380 is not so common.

Did the ebola outbreak have anything to do with it?

You`re right; this is very seldon!

I can imagine; EK wants their "premium" aircraft in DFW; now that EY and QR will fly to DFW as well.
