Just an update. -SKM was delayed out of TLS by a day. ETA should be sometime before noon (local time) this morning.

On SKM today to London, can still smell the new leather.

How wonderfully intoxicating.

Have plans for the 3rd A380 flight to LHR by year's end been shelved in order to fly SIN-FRA-JFK in Jan?

Yup, it was delivered yesterday.

Yup, it was delivered yesterday.

That's handy, just in time to have the wings checked for cracks with the others.

Will there be a third 380 on the London route taking over the 777?

It's been planned since a long time ago but with all these checks I doubt it'll happen anytime soon.

Are they not receiving 4 more big birds this year?
They have to be deployed somewhere .....

AMS is also getting 77W soon so these have to be taken off somewhere too.

My guess is from LHR. Also wonder about SFO, they used to have double daily 744. Any chance for upgauge to A380?
