Sensible decision; re-using reliable assets which are partly (or fully?) depreciated, with the space, quietness and comfort which passengers expect and hope for. Always struck me as a very elegant airframe.

In my opinion the A340-600 is the most aesthetically beautiful plane ever built by Airbus.

Just the right amount of motors for long distance/over water trips.

When was the last time a 2 engine plane crashed due to having only 2 motors over water ?

With less than 300 seats it makes no sense compared to widebody twin engine planes.
But I guess if you have the plane and it's been paid for I guess it will do in times of sudden demand.

It might be that they need that capacity and have nothing else in storage. Ordering will take years.
