New First on DXB - HAM?
I'm booked on EK59 DXB - HAM in F much later this year, actually on November 03. Much to my surprise, an early glimpse on EF shows just 6 seats in F, so my normal office mode immediately switched to an alerted one.
Can it be that I'm a fortunate flyer now and can experience this juwel on that route? Never thought new F would come to provincial Hamburg (that counts for the airport only!) so fast.
Can anyone confirm that this is not a dream only? Thanks in advance!

Aren't all HAM flights served by A380s? WeveW not had any news on A380s getting the new F though HAM wouldn't be totally unreasonable if that was the case since it is an Airbus base.

Nope, up to now the twice-daily flights to/from Hamburg are operated by 777

Odd, I've flown on an A380 out of HAM, must be a recent downgrade

As far as I remember, EK has sent an 380 to Hamburg only once, that was an airport birthday event or something similar strange.
