And soon EK 412/413 DXB-SYD-DXB will be DXB-SYD-CHC-SYD-DXB....so, it will be even more difficulty to find seats.

I believe there's a plan to restart 416/417 in (northern) summer with the 77W. Give it a few weeks... updates are still being made.

This means I lose a day of safari, grrr.

I see some more changes on the way back to pre Covid frequencies (all with B77W):

1st Feb LAD from 5 weekly to 6 weekly
1st Apr VCE from 5 weekly to 6 weekly
1st May BLQ fron 5 weekly to 6 weekly
1st May BUD from 5 weekly to 6 weekly
1st June VCE from 6 weekly to daily
1st June BUD fron 6 weekly to daily
1st July EBB from 6 weekly to daily

Europe almost back to 2019 levels. 2nd daily GLA, MAD, MXP (nonstop terminator in addition to JFK) and resumption of EDI is missing.
Would be nice if some existing flights will be upgraded to A380 (FRA, DUS, HAM, VIE, ZRH, PRG, CPH) by year end.

Any news if DXB-EWR or 3rd daily nonstop DXB-JFK might come back?

I am still missing ADL, PHN, RGN, OPO, SCL, DOH, LOS, ABV and ZAG.....altough DOH, LOS and ABV seems to be a political issue.
And missing A380 upgrade to BCN, MCT, KWI, DFW, BOS and KIX.

Scotland flights
Edinburgh flight has been dissolved and EK don’t have any plans to bring it back.

2nd daily service to Glasgow is also a while away as only last week they announced the upgrade of aircraft from the 777 to the A380 from the 26th of March 2023 to meet demand.

ADL, RGN, SCL, and ZAG are not returning anytime soon. PHN may be resuming as a tag-on to EK370 from Aug 1.

Terrible!!!! I was looking forward to the EK767 too ......... I had to take the 761 when i flew into JNB in December and had to overnight prior to going on my safari the next day,

What's still puzzling ...... the EK lounge continues to stay closed and the shongololo lounge is TERRIBLE

Very annoying isn't it? It was the perfect connector to a 11AM flight out of JNB to Eastgate... oh well. I have never been to JNB before so I will endeavour to see the Apartheid Museum if possible.

I see JNB is going to be 3 daily eff 1st March with EK763 using A380 and the other 2 flights to be operated with B77W.
Starting April also EK761 with switch to A380 making it double daily A380 and daily B77W.

KWI won't be getting the A380 anytime soon. The A380 service has been discontinued since late 2017.

Argh, I just saw what EK77W wrote and just saw that 761 got switched from an A380 to a 77W for my dates in early March - that was one consolation that I had after 767 was cancelled, that I would be flying the A380 but EK has also taken that from me lol. But no notification, so I didn't know until I checked! Would have been a not so nice surprise at check in when I went to double check my seats!

I got automatically moved to 6K which is a bulkhead window seat in J... is that good or bad?
