Watched a video on YouTube earlier this week and it mentioned that the president Tim Clark said they would be flying the A380 for 'at least' the next decade. It also mentioned about three new A380s being delivered, and according to the planespotters website, they have 115 in the fleet of which only 15 are operational, plus another 7 on order. Hate to think of how much it costs to have 100 aircraft parked up, yet still being maintained.
EDIT: Found the video. It's on the "Dj's Aviation" channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNyLSjm6I2w
