This was published today. What's going to happen tomorrow?
Could it be a complete rebranding? A lot of the national tree in the F cabin as well as new colours in economy with the blue...

Ah! I thought this was published on Saturday. I have no idea but I know that there have been select trials of F pax checking their bags in when they are picked up by CD. A staff member checks the luggage in and they are loaded to the car, then you don't see them until the other side.

The rumour mill is churning.....
Latest I've got on the next unveiling is potential preview of the new 1-2-1 J seat on the 777X launching in 2020.
Even if this is wrong, I love being an EK FF if just for the sheer excitement of these outrageous and ostentatious unveilings.

I still think a rebrand is looking like the most likely story.
Or... Will it be the additional A380s announcement?

Isn't the A319 the same one they have had for a while or is this a new addition?
