I can't imagine they'd use a non-ULR configuration (without crew rest) to fly to N. America... this might be a mis-load, does anyone know if EK has 2-class ULR A380?

SFO, at least pre-covid, was a relatively low-F load sector so it makes sense to cut F here and increase the load in Y. This is in comparison to say, LAX (stars & sheikhs) or JFK (banking & sheikhs),...

Thinking goes that if you are traveling, you have to travel, and you're not price sensitive. So, while loads (pax) are in the crapper, you can at least keep your yields (Dhs/pax) up.
