Ah, thanks for that website. My KGL flight was PH-AKB.

Fingers crossed that's the case. I have a AMS-KGL in February and would really love a lie flat, especially after the short red eye from JFK.

PH-AOF not yet done
I am sitting in PH-AOF at the moment (AUA-BON-AMS) and I can tell you it still has the old seats. The stewardess just checked on the plane and I am sure this is the PH-AOF. Sadly no new seats 😢

I can confirm that an updated PH-AKE operated MIA-AMS on 28 October and had the new seats. Apart from disappointingly cold soup and red wine that seemed a tad chilled, it was an excellent service.

According to Flightradar PH-AKD stopped flying last sunday, so I assume this one is next. With this one on the line the upgrade of the A330-300 will be finished.

Meaning as of now 100% certainty of full-flat seats when booking a flight on a A330-300!
