When is the plane due to leave CRL today?
I am close to the airport and I'd like to see it take off!

Looking from the seat maps here are the loads for the Inaugural flight from both CRL and HKG (there are probably more people then this on the flight as it costs money to buy seats):

CRL-HKG

Biz: 2
Pre: 0
Eco: 91(seems that there is a big Chinese tour group in the back that makes up the majority of the ECO load).

HKG-CRL

Biz: 2
Pre: 1
Eco: 85

Just made the online check-in.

Couldn't change the seats but I was fine with those who were already assigned.

I suppose the rehearsal flights will be done by OO-ABB in that case.
EDIT: same for me, unable to change seats but it seems they try to fill the window seats first and then work towards the middle.

Can someone provide the link to the checkin page. I suppose its a different booking page than the "my booking" on the homepage?

You should have received an email with the link (an individual link for each passenger).

Aviation24.be would like to meet all its members participating in the 11:00 flight (KF340 OO-ABA).

Will be present: Ivan ("Apuneger"), Bram ("Bottie"), Maarten ("Quixoticguide") and myself André ("sn26567").

Please identify yourself to one of the members of the team. We might either have a coffee before the flight or a beer after the flight. A great opportunity to meet our avgeek community.

Was assigned a window seat as well, so I didn't have to change - especially as it is slightly behind the wings so there is a possibility of getting some nice wingview pics as well...

It would be a pleasure to meet you guys! I plan to be there fairly early. Watch out for a blue sports jacket with a Belgian Air Force pin on the breast pocket. Where do you want to meet in the morning?
Best regards,

When the flight info on Schiphol.nl is correct, OO-ABA will return from Paramaribo without loosing time there for crew rest. Scheduled arrival at AMS is Saturday, 13h07 local (ETA 12h20 local).
