Emirates is rejecting delivery of the first 10 Boeing 777-9s produced for the airline given the extensive rework the aircraft would need to bring them up to current standards.
The wing spars of 16 Airbus A380s require inspection and possible ensuing repairs, EASA said in an emergency airworthiness directive effective June 24.
Emirates has successfully reconfigured its first two-class Airbus A380 into a three-cabin layout, bringing Premium Economy seating to the aircraft upper deck.
