any new flights to CCU ?

Are there any new international flights being planned for Kolkata (CCU) in east India ? There were rumours of LH, QR,AZ and TR starting scheduled services to this city. Along with these BA is rumoured to be doubling flights from 3 per week to 6 per week soon. Any truth in these or simple rumours.

LH is already putting its winter schedule into the system and no CCU yet. It also seems they are suffering a tempoary aircraft shortage with the ex-SN aircraft going back and the 346 running a bit late.

AI/BAs timetable for the winter still show only 3 weekly flights each

How is Emirates performing on their new route to CCU ??

MH withdrew services earlier this year on what i believe were purely operational reasons. Do they have plans of reinstating this flight. I think their BLR service is doing pathetically with loads of about 40-50 pax per flight.I know for sure that when i flew them to CCU last year theyr had had on an average about 120 people on the outbound and inbound flights.
