I was wondering if they add seven flights to LHR by operating A380. This route is always full for every day. They always has been successful routes.

I think QF has 4 pairs, uses only 2 and the other 2 are leased by BA. Maybe when the QF/BA lease ends?

New direct to DKR? Tried DXB-DKR in the routemap to see an upcoming route starting this month.

If it's full, I'd expect the 737 to be making more money per pax than EK's economy 380 cabin
FZ medium haul has a totally different target market to EK - it is, to be blunt, a migrant worker shuttle bus, if there is overlap with EK/network carrier routes.

Yeah, you're right, on a cost basis the 737 is way more profitable. The EK India flights are regional feeders to the more profitable long haul services, just flown with 77W/A380's instead of RJ's I just looked however and the fares HYD-DXB were USD 300 R/T and FZ was more expensive??
