Little amendment to my above post:

for inauguration on 29th Oct. EK59/60 will be operated by A380 as a one of; EK61/62 by 777-300ER,
from 30th Oct. it will be the afternoon/evening flight

DXB-HAM EK59/60 777-300ER daily
DXB-HAM EK61/62 A380 daily

Probably to have the welcome presentation in HAM rather at 2pm than between 7pm and 9pm

Apologies if this is the wrong thread for this, but thought it would be worth sharing this if it hasn’t been seen before of course!

Watch the video at the end.... seems to me the problem isn’t a crew shortage, but perhaps they’re not hiring them fast enough? 😏

How comes DXB-BNE (434/5) is downgraded to a 777? Is it a temporary thing?

Test / mock flights will be performed on 8th July as EK2524/2525 with an A388, and only EK614/615 with minor changes in timing (+/- 10 minutes) will be upgraded to an A380, maintaining the 4x weekly schedule.

Probably an agreement between CAA and EK, since EK had requested for EK614/615 to be changed from 4x weekly to 1x daily since the new ISB airport has improved capacity, but CAA denied and I guess this was the only way for EK to carry extra pax without adding extra flights.

Official flights get upgraded to A388 effective 9th July, whereas EK612/613 will remain 2-class B77W.
Unfortunately my return flight to ISB on 13th July is EK612, so I don't get to fly the 388 to ISB.

So new bilaterals with France and Canada in place? Any more frequencies available or "just" +3 to France and +2 to Canada for another couple of years?
