As Lk2000 and I discussed on Twitter (A380fanclub) there is something strange here. The Air France financial document says AF converted 2 A380's into 3 A350-900's as of 31 December 2015. This keeps the A380 fleet at 10 and increases the A350 order to 28. The latest Airbus orders and deliveries per March 4 2016 still shows 12 A380's and 25 A350's, or 319 A380's in total. This includes the 3 for ANA. Why this difference exists is a mystery to me.

Why this difference exists is a mystery to me. It's probably only a difference in effective date. AF probably notified Airbus last year, whereas Airbus may not have confirmed the change yet ... Airbus seems to be dragging its feet, but it does not matter !

Just checking: seeing the thread and posts in October 2014 about the two A380's that were postponed, is it any news then that this is confirmed in the 2015 consolidated financial statement? 'The Group substituted at two A380s on order, three A350-900s.' The conversion has finally been reflected in Airbus's order and delivery XLS and as a result, AF has no remaining A380s on order.

Someone on a.net is saying that AF is considering taking 4 used A380 from EK... For what it is worth: A.net post
