Thanks XWB! Maybe the 31C then, the 'multi-tool' bay...

The last information we have is that the Prince had resold the aircraft to a new owner. So perhaps MSN2 was in storage awaiting an outfit spot (similar like that 747-8i BBJ in the desert) and is now being prepared for its ferry flight?
It would also require the wing modification (if not done already).

Ok It is time I came clean and owned up to buying MSN2. Great finance deal and only one previous owner. I plan to use it as just like my 'Winnebago'. Loads of room for those long Summer vacations.

JT If it is indeed ging to be delivered (and outfitted) Basel comes to mind. The airport can handle the A380 (An-225 has been there too).

I heard the Prince (or new owner) paid a huge amount of daily parking fee
