*second visit*

You can expect to see a lot of B-6137 and B-6138 in the beginning, as CZ operates two A380s on the following routing:

- PEK-CTU-PEK-AMS-PEK

Another 2x CZ A380s are in service on the PEK-CAN-LAX-CAN-PEK rotation, leaving the 5th A380 for one CAN-PEK-CAN domestic rotation and as spare.

Occasionally CZ will interchange aircraft between the CAN-LAX and PEK-AMS routings via the domestic CAN-PEK route.

In an airline planning tool you will assign routes according to the number of airplanes you have in your fleet.
That does not mean that those routes will be fixed to surtain tail numbers.
otherwise airplane #5 would see very few flight hours.
Scheduled and unscheduled maintenance will probably result in a shift in tail numbers.
Especially since CZ has same cabin config on all A380s.

To give an example:
Last year I noted 4 different CZ A380's on 5 consecutive days in Sydney.

The SYD the situation is completely different as the Northern winter service to SYD is also operated from CAN, just as CAN-LAX is. So in winter all A380s are based in a single hub making daily aircraft rotations easy.

What is new with the PEK-AMS-PEK-CTU route is that the two main CZ A380 routes are operated out of two separate bases, only connected with a domestic sector CAN-PEK.

Of course aircraft are rotated over the network, that is precisely what I am saying in the first post.
But I am pointing out that you can expect it to be less frequent compared to operations where all A380s are operated from a single hub.

So, basically we all agree.
