EK have announced LHR is scheduled to be operated from DXB via a double daily A380 service by 1st July 2010 and will therefore replace any B777 service we see at present.

On another note, they are also planned to introduce some HD versions of the A380 aircraft soon, configured to 519Y.

Sixth daily flight added to DXB from 27th March. Initially it will be a 773 then it switches to an A380 from June.

This means as of June there will be nine daily A380 flights between London and Dubai. There are also rumours that Gatwick will soon have a 4th daily flight.
