That means less legroom in Y ? The 77L has more legroom than an A388 so this is actually a downgrade.

Yet many people would say this is an upgrade due to the seats being wider.

Economy is much of a muchness. Honestly, unless you're sitting in a 9-abreast A330 or an 8-abreast B767, the factors which differentiate a good Y seat from a bad Y seat, aren't the seats themselves, or their spacing, but the food and the IFE essentially.

Along with DAR and CMN, that's the third African destination where a second daily hasn't worked.... along with BKO and CKY which never materialized.... they're really going to need a smaller widebody if Africa is going to work effectively for their network.

DXB SAW is gradually reducing to 4 weekly B773 and will stay at that level for W16.

Why not an A380 ? Same for JNB.
Daily 3x CPT and 4xJNB and no 380 flight ? Or is tha capacity of an A380 not larger than a 77W ?

A380 can carry a fraction the cargo.

The 4X JNB service is critical at the moment ....... Until EK expands it's Southern African network into Namibia/Botswana etc etc.,

Even if they go the 380 route - hope they do not cut down the frequency of service to JNB>
