I thought the Frankfurt route was also set for the A380. Or am I wrong?

They really do need the MSNs179+182 fast. Too many plans for 2 frames only - even 4 will have hard time to make all the announced routes.

MSN 179 is currently being painted so it should be ready for delivery before the end of May.

They can't serve LAX, HKG, JFK, BKK and KIX daily at the same time with 4 frames IMHO. So probably the Osaka flights will be affected by this as well. The schedule seems to allow one pair of frames to operate daily flights to LAX and BKK while the other pair can combine to serve JFK and HKG (or combine LAX with HKG and JFK with BKK), but that's about it, and there is not a lot of time for maintenance etc left.

Exactly bvb09 - my observation - it is simply "almost" impossible.
We will see they will alternate with 777 or 747 of their fleet.

This new report doesn't mention the increase of services that were planned on the last report, increases to HKG and BKK and KIX on 03/06, then reincrease to BKK on 05/07.... Indeed MSN179 would have the time to be delivered by May (roll out this month), however MSN18 3 was ferried to XFW 3 months after MSN179, would it have the time to be delivered just one month after MSN179 (in June?)?...... MSN18 3 would look like a real emergency to me

So apparently the (re)start of BKK services will be permanent, and apparently the restart of services to KIX will be just for one month (or so), then stop for one month, then rerestart for another month....
