Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 20, 2009 Good to know that guy are so interested on KE flights. Everyone is guessing when is the next KE fights. Here is another busy day for all of you: KE B747 21NOV ETA 2150 KE B747 21NOV ETA 2320 KE B737 21NOV ETA 2250 KE B777 22NOV ETA 0050 At the same time you will have MH (codeshare with KE)and OZ (codeshare with UA). Please take note: this is the last day KE flights with OZ and MH. Between 2250 to 2310 - KE738 / KE747 (1ST) / OZ on ground. Between 2350 to 0010 - MH / OZ / KE738 / KE747 (2ND) ON GROUND. Between 2300 to 2320 - Both KE 747 on ground. Between 0030 to 0050 - MH / KE 777 on ground. **Time is base on estimate only** **The best is availabe yourself from 2150 to 0219** Lastly, where is the 17Nov/18Nov photos.....please share. Nice or not nice...that is not an issue. Cheers!!!! Hi Yoong, thanks for the info. Makes me itching for a trip to Korea. Pix I took I posted on the BKI spotting thread. Anyway, when the second KE 747 arrive most likely the first would be ready for departure, no? On the 18 the second KE arrived I think around 5 minutes earlier and I think it waited for the first to depart before occupying bay 1. 21 is Saturday so maybe can stay until the B777 arrive.

Actually I thought the second B747 would park next to the first. Now that would be a sight to behold although we may not see the second plane clearly from the car park. We actually didn't see the scheduled B738 because we believe it was park further away. Then an MH B734 and the Asiana A321 parked next to the Jumbo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BC Tam 2 Report post Posted November 25, 2009 Actaully all charter flights are suppose to park at gate A1 but due the time constrain....terpaksa LMC. Any particular reason why ? I would imagine BKI now has enough gates to cope ? What is LMC ? (please pardon ignorance) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 26, 2009 Any particular reason why ? I would imagine BKI now has enough gates to cope ? What is LMC ? (please pardon ignorance) I was also thinking the same thing when the KE 777 arrived that day. Normally I would expect the tower to place the triple next to the 747 instead of having to wait for the Jumbo to depart first. Or maybe it was indeed the original plan, only that the airport had not prepared the gate for the triple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted November 26, 2009 My guess would be manpower issues rather than insufficient gates Could it be KE scheduled the flights such that only one team of kaki's is to handle the flights on ground, one after the other. However, if one flight gets delayed, then the next kena wait lah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 26, 2009 On the other hand, there is no doubt KKIA got enough gates to handle the charter flights PLUS a few more flights on that night. However, all flights really have to wait since the taxiway is rather "limited" in terms of space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 26, 2009 I think there are only a few international airports in Malaysia - KUL, PEN, KCH and BKI. Some airports have other scheduled foreign airlines flying in and out like Sandakan but those are not considered as international airport. Correct me if I am wrong.
