Different missions.

Wow - this is good news and perhaps a necessary acquisition due to the 777 retirements. The article spoke of a number of A330-900's being held in Toulouse, but didn't say how many.

No - just international. Having spent time in the UAE, there is not much reason to have a domestic network. Besides Dubai and Abu Dhabi, there is an international airport in Sharjah, but small and international only. Also the Sharjah airport is about an hour drive from the Dubai airport.

Uh, no - the MD11 came many years later and it was a different aircraft altogether, though it looked somewhat similar.

So what?

I read an update today which said Delta was added and will be operating 18 flights through July 31st from JFK to Mumbai.

Interesting they're using the A350 rather than the A330-900 they are currently using SEA-ICN. I wonder if it's a cargo consideration.

Why not both?

Not surprising considering the increase in the A350 and A330Neo orders. There are 32 A330Neo's, and 26 A350's still on the order book, rendering the 777's as unnecessary given the greater efficiency of both the Airbus aircraft, plus the reduction in flying. Airbus will probably give Delta latitude to bring in the new Airbus' when needed.
