Emirates reassigns 2-class A380 to Manchester

From January 1, the Gulf airline will fly the superjumbo daily between Dubai and Manchester, replacing the three-class A380 currently being deployed. Also from January 1, Emirates’ three-times daily Gatwick service will become A380-only. The B777 currently being used will be replaced by a three-class A380, instead of the two class, 615-seater as previously planned. To summarise, starting in the new year, Emirates will fly a three-times daily service to Gatwick with three-class A380s, while Manchester will be served three-times daily by two A380s (one two-class and one three-class) as well as a B777.
