Emirates to take A380 to Hong Kong | Australian Aviation Magazine

I cannot recall seeing this news, I did have a good search through the forum. The aircraft change started on this route about 30 days ago.

Great result.
Rumours abound that Emirates will swing one of their new big birds onto the KUL-MEL route. Is KUL even ready to take an A380?

KUL is A380 ready. SQ did use KUL for testing when they first got it.

Just looked on the Emirates website and the price per person BKK-HKG return in April is THB25555 inc taxes. This works out to about AUD868.

How did you get the discount to get it down to AUD1340 for two people?
