I can see lots being scraped. The MH couldn't sell them and the leasing company of the first SQ A380 are struggling.

Do you this mean they will have 4 more A380 delivered this year? This could be 100 A380 delivered to EK.

Correct. STC confirmed it at the Paris Air Show.

Do these refurbs include the newer PTVs in Economy? And are any of these the ULH frames that fly to Australia/NZ and the Americas?

To Australia:

A 777-200LR services Perth once daily (The other is an A380)
A 700-300ER services Adelaide once daily

To NZ:
A 777-200LR services Auckland once daily
A 700-300ER services Christchurch once daily

The new frames have not flown these routes.

All flights to NZ are operated by A380.

The only B777/300ER to Australia are ADL (1 daily ), PER ( 1 daily ), MEL ( 1 daily), BNE via SIN ( 1 daily ).

Doubt the lounge is going anywhere given the new marketing that's just come out, also full of interesting facts about the lounge, e.g. 26 pax at a time, each lounge worth $3m (measured how? cost? surely you couldn't resell it for that, poor wording IMHO):

Sorry- I just realized that my real question was: are any of the new deliveries 3-class ULH?

3 class deliveries have been deferred, so there have been no 3 class deliveries this year, and only a few 2 class.

The launch of the new F product is imminent so no news at the moment on 3 class deliveries.
