Airbus' goal is to have a steady production level, not to break a record. As demand does not warrant a higher pace, any production in excess of 30 would translate into fewer frames being built and delivered next year.

We don't really know, maybe MSN160 was pulled forward to reach the target of 30 frames. We also don't know if MSN167 would have been delivered in 2014.

So funny ! Last minute deliveries have been the A380 norm, though, for many years. Quite a few were delivered after Christmas ...
