Three 773's left. Not sure what routes they're operating on regularly but EK said they'll be retired before the year ends.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but EK will reduce its ZAG daily service to 5 weekly after Croatias high summer season.

I had EK207 booked for DXB-JFK on Sat Nov 18 at 15:00 (1h50m connection), continuing on from PER-DXB departing 06:00

Was just changed on me to EK203 leaving the following day at 02:35 for a 13h25m connection.

Looking at their site it's not showing that flight now so seems they've removed this route/timing. However leaving Perth on the 10:20PM EK421 would line up for a 3h5m stopover instead for a similar routing as the original.

Seems this was done in some other months including June..

"Emirates during the month of June 2017 is reducing nonstop operation on Dubai – New York JFK route, currently served 3 times a day. From 04JUN17 to 30JUN17, service will be reduced to 2 daily, as the airline cancels EK207/208 service. The airline will also continue to operate daily Dubai – Milan Malpensa – New York JFK route."

So not sure if this is a flimsy routing, totally retired or what.

Although a search now indicates EK207 is still scheduled on Sunday just not Saturday.

Interesting to spot this early morning that JNB is getting a 5th additional flight on the DXB-JNB-DXB segment only on the 8th and 9th of December , it seems it is only a two class 77W as EK.com or expert flyer won't give me any F availability or provide any seat maps.

Flight is operating as EK2675 on the inbound (DXB-JNB), departing DXB @9am and arriving in JNB @ 15:20. Then EK2676 on the outbound (JNB-DXB) leaving JNB @ 17:00 then arriving in DXB @ 3:00am. Pretty good timing on the inbound for folks based in DXB imo.

However pretty strange for EK to be doing this ? Excessive demand or trialling the option of how well a 5th flight work on the JNB sector.

JNB is a strange route - not so busy in Y and F, but packed - as in 100% revenue loads - in J, which probably explains the prevalence of 77Ws on the route.

Could it be a cargo booking?

Yes, will be two-class 77W.

Due to demand - start of the Summer/Xmas school holidays in SA. JNB will be an absolute madhouse on those days. Bet the respective fligths from DXB to JNB will be pretty empty though.
