Emirates silent on A380 flights

Hyderabad: An Airbus A380 belonging to Emirates is in Hyderabad for India Aviation 2014, but officials of the airline remain non-committal about the launch of flights of the low-sound aircraft to the country. A clear picture of how Emirates plans to use the seats allocated in a new bilateral agreement is likely to emerge only in April.
Last month, the Indian government signed a new bilateral agreement with UAE which increased the allocation of seats between these two countries by 11,000 seats per week . Before that in January, the Indian government had given a green signal to allow foreign airlines launch A380 operations into the country. With the signing of the new bilaterals, the question now was when will Emirates launch A380 operations into India. On Wednesday, the response was anything but sunny.
