In a last minute twist, Emirates has announced that an Airbus A380 super-jumbo will be used on the airline's first direct services between Dubai and Auckland as a one-off special.
The flight, which arrives in Auckland tomorrow morning, will be regularly operated with the smaller Boeing 777-200LR.
But an Emirates spokesman said this afternoon that an A380 would be used on the inaugural non-stop services as "a special acknowledgment of the support" Emirates has had from New Zealand.
