I do believe they will want to have more frames immediately to be able to run the routes with some sense end efficiency

I would agree that MSN160 might or might not be delivered this year, but I think what you are describing here is only applying to Emirates, unfortunately all other operators seem to have enough A380s by delaying (AF,QF,...), cancelling (LH,...), or just be happy with the ones they have (MH, TG, KE etc...)... Especially QR that will be a new operator, and knowing its CEO, I think they might have a conservative approach in the start and see 'how it goes' before ordering more or speeding deliveries,...?..  |

Fabien right but with one frame it is impossible to run even simple daily service, so.... All the mentioned airlines have at least 6 pcs  |
