It would be nice to see the A380 fly thru to SYD, or rotate it to HKG... but I guess that's wishful thinking..

Well, MH
has flown the A380 to both SYD and HKG in the past so certainly not in the realm of impossibility...

For HKG, I'd rather have 2 daily A330 than 1 daily A380

I agree ! Especially for the morning departure from HKG, which suits hk traveller a lot.

They could fly A380s to Tokyo or China if the load is really good. Especially to China, plenty of Chinese crowd at KLIA and KL.

I find it hard to believe they can't fill an A380 to/from key cities in China on a daily or 5 days a week basis
