I noticed this as well when looking up some flights earlier. Maybe because the -8 has a larger economy cabin than the -9, the WTP seats are better off being sold as CE? It does seem unusual.

If anyone is going to AMS, for goodness sake spend some time there, with only a few tourists and most places, including bars and cafés, open it is a positive delight in this lovely weather. Just mind the kamikaze cyclists, without all the tourists they can ride even faster.
If going to a museum, you typically need to book a slot online, but that's easy enough.

I'm not based in AMS, but the relaxed and carefee atmosphere was very much on view to me during my visits. Face nasks are needed on public transport, they're aren't much used anywhere else. Shops, cafés and bars are open with a 1.5 metre rule in place. One café I went to, rather than taking away chairs or tables, placed tailor's mannequins in seats, thereby making you find other seats, and preventing the place looking too empty.

UK residents don't have any entry restrictions as far as I can tell.

Conscious this is just advisory but was interested to get peopleS takes and wondered if UK or Swedish folk who have visited lately had been met by any hostility from locals?
My current thinking is to go for a holiday; knowing my part of Blighty is fairly low risk and to maintain the usual social distancing precautions in NL.

Does anybody know does the 787 to. ZRH use the D gates or E gates?
THe OW APP is showing the lounge at E is open but not in the D area any knowledge on this as I’m sure I’ve seen something about ZRH lounges. Not being the best.
