Emirates retires first two Airbus A380
Dubai, UAE - Emirates Airlines has retired its first Airbus A380 aircraft. Two superjumbos from the airline's fleet are stored at Al Maktoum Airport, where they will be dismantled to deliver spare parts for the rest of the fleet. More A380s will follow in the coming years.

I wonder if 1 of the retirees is the unit that fell off the jackstands.
I was thinking that myself Rapid.
Also a year ago Emirates wanted more A380s and wanted Airbus to build an A380Neo and now they are starting to get rid of them lol.
Tim Clark is in trouble with costly A380s and looks for someone to blame for his bleeding airline.
Winter is coming for inflated Gulf carriers, except Qatar Airways. CEO Al-Baker is a smart businessman.
Keep the jets, retire Clark instead.
They have more yet to be delivered..it should have been designated E380 since it seems Emirates was the only airline who "fell in love" with the beast.
