Hmm, number 45... We are already half way through EK's order!! Although that may change quickly if the order for an additional 30 comes in...

Wow! A number#45 A380 for EK, huh? It's unbelievable!
Guys, this registration number is A6-EES for number#45.

Number 60 should be delivered in early 2015. Two thirds of the present order would then have been executed.

Number 60 should be delivered in early 2015. . Indeed, that was the plan to have #58 in Jan-15 and #59 in Apr-59, though unfortunately plans may have now changed, as Emirates will only take delivery of 11 frames in 2014, leading #51 by the end of 2014 (MSN157)... Unless Emirates takes delivery of 6+ during 2015-Q1, as it is in 2014-Q1?... Fabien

If additional slots are available, EK should snatch them.

All 2014 slots are full but I recall Leahy speaking about some open slots at the end of 2015. Tim Clark is always complaining about being short of airframes, I'm sure he will take as many slots as he can get.
