As I understand, you're trying to make more than one http request and then process the response when all those request have ended. For instance, you may need to load data from more than one source, and delay the post-loading logic until all the data has loaded.

If that's the case, you could use ReactiveX Observables because it provides a method called forkJoin() to wrap multiple Observables.

import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';
import {Http, Response} from '@angular/http';
import {Observable} from 'rxjs/Rx';

@Injectable()
export class MultipleHttpService {

  constructor(private http:Http) { }

  // If any single request fails, the entire operation will result in an error state.
  getData0AndData1() {
    return Observable.forkJoin(
      this.http.get('/app/data0.json').map((res:Response) => res.json()),
      this.http.get('/app/data1.json').map((res:Response) => res.json())
    );
  }

}

Then you could get all the data by subscribing to that observable:

// Code in your page ...
this.myMultipleHttpService.getData0AndData1()
    .subscribe(
      data => {
        this.data0= data[0]
        this.data1 = data[1]
      },
      err => console.error(err)
    );
