Etihad A380 from MLE via AUH to JFK?
Does Etihad every fly the A380 from MLE via AUH to JFK, where the AUH to JFK segment is on the A380 (the MLE to AUH will be on other aircraft).
I've been checking and it seems no matter which dates I choose, they do not fly the A380 in that direction (the reverse JFK to AUH, they do).
Is there a way to find out which aircraft are on which routes?
We could fly into pretty much any east-coast city.

Sorry for the confusion, I'll edit the original post.
What I meant, but didn't say clearly was:
MLE to JFK via AUH
where the AUH to JFK segment is on the A380
What's weird is that the Etihad Route Map says it operates A380 on a bunch of days.
But when you go to the actual Etihad booking site, there are NO A380 flights at all from that direction
They're all Etihad to AUH and then AUH to DUB and DUB to JFK via Aer Lingus.

Both flights from Male arrive into Abu Dhabi late at night whereas the JFK flight leaves Abu Dhabi at 10am. The Etihad site assumes you'd rather not spend the night in the airport, but rather take the overnight flight to Dublin and continue to JFK. If you just search Abu Dhabi to JFK the A380 flight appears.

May be worth calling to see if an Agent could book for you at a better price.
