Where is DXB? 
My HKG in October is looking good. And BKK in September, too. But JFK in late July not...
Italy opens its borders to EU citizens on 03JUN. But no flights. I wonder if AY will start MXP or FCO on short notice.

Looks like Aurinkomatkat offering W20/21 very thin program.
No Vietnam, Cuba, Caribbean, sun destinations are only Dubai, Israel and then boring and tired Thailand and Canary Islands.

DXB four weekly from November onwards. FCO and MXP 5 weekly and growing from Aug onwards according to this plan.
Checked AM website and they offer Friday and Sunday flights, but no upgrade possibility so it indeed looks as if AY is planning to operate A32B only. I've got two confirmed J awards on the A350 in Nov. Well, a lot can happen between now and November. Perhaps everyone wants to go to DXB next winter and AY will review

Eastbound only secondary destinations are red (PKX being the exception, but it never really got off the ground before the crisis and anyway PEK is “black”), so no drama, if the “black” flights have good LF. The frequency of the flights is another issue altogether - only NRT seeing dailies before the autumn (I hesitate to use the expression “before the fall” )
)
