Introducing aeroLOPA: A new portfolio of detailed AF/KL cabin layout plans

Hello esteemed FlyerTalkers. I'd like to welcome you to aeroLOPA. It's a project I started over a year ago initially for my own benefit but from May this year the project transformed into its own dedicated website.

AeroLOPA's mission is to create and share detailed seat diagrams that are as easy to access and read on a mobile phone as they are on a desktop computer. What they do not do is tell you where the best seats are, rather its aim is to provide all the necessary information so you can make that decision for yourself by weighing up the variables and options available to you. For the all chit chat, questions, answers, and debate, FT is still the place

I have received several requests for Air France and KLM seat maps, and as luck would have it, a kind AF employee reached out to me with a generous dollop of encouragement and the offer of a supportive hand so I set to work and the AF portfolio is now broadly done. The Hop! fleet will follow shortly, then KLM

The creative process starts with a technical blueprint of each aircraft type. Factory standard galley, washroom, storage units are inserted, then the cabins are populated with seats and carefully space planned. It sounds simple, but to ensure accuracy scores of photos are scrutinised, cabin videos closely studied frame by frame allowing seat positions to be spot checked, adjusted as necessary and the diagrams fine tuned then ultimately signed off

I hope the cabin layout plans will also be useful to you. I will let you know when we can expect the KLM family as soon as I have the timeline confirmed

Enjoy and let me know what's working and any areas you think need attention.
