I can't see them squeezing in another mid-afternoon one (between 1:30pm and 6:30pm, maybe a 4pm?)

You're forgetting EK's 3 daily flights to LGW, with a 4th coming later this year.

So LON still has more flights than BKK!

damn, no use to me then, though I was spot-on with 8pm! For India routes those timings aren't very helpful, unfortunately.

Tim Clark says A380 to stay in IAH

I read that Tim Clark said in recent interviews that the A380 will be kept on Houston, despite the light loads, no change to 777. Any confirmation on this?

http://www.arabianbusiness.com/us-ca...l#.V0WSXFcTKCw

"The airline will keep the A380 on its Dubai to Houston route despite the negative impact of the falling oil price, Clark added.
“As you know, we switched it off Dallas and put it on to our Washington service because clearly the oil and gas sector in Texas was suffering.
“At the moment, the Houston operation on the A380 is in good shape – it is not as good as it was but we can’t have it all ways all of the time.”"

Based on the EK online schedule B77W planned to IAH from 1st July until the end of winter season.

As it stands now PEW will be the only route to be served with an A332 in March 2017.

6.35 departure is a killer. Unless you leave the night club at 4am and go straight to the airport

That is a shame. X: IAH is a easy award get, I was hoping for the A380 in December.

Excellent news. The nonstop flight has better domestic connectivity than the flights via Australia.

Assuming SQ resumes A380 for northern winter then there will be 1-4 A380 at AKL for much of the afternoon. Not good when there is only 2 gates with dual airbridges.
