A380 from LHR
Hi guys i am due to fly on the 20/2 and was wondering if the plane will be a refurbished A380? Is there a way of finding out?

TIA

You're only likely to find out on Flight Radar if you track the inbound on the day.

I don't think any of the A380s have been refurbished. There are quite a few different types depending on their age however (new / old bar, different IFE controllers, PE, 2/3 class etc.)

Correct, but right now, many DXB-LHR-DXB A380s are recent deliveries with registrations of A6-EVx, some of which may have PE seats (if this is what the OP means by refurbished). But as you say, you can't be sure until you see what the outbound registration is on the day of departure from DXB.

Melbourne is being favoured with many quite new A380s at the moment. Let's see what I'm on in a few days from now!
