News just in from Straits Times.
SQA350 flights to AMS will commence on 9 May.
SINGAPORE -Singapore Airlines said on Tuesday it will start the inaugural long-haul flight of its new Airbus A350-900 fleet to Amsterdam on May 9.
The A350 will serve the airline's daily flight to Amsterdam as SQ324, and its return flight SQ323.
This was announced before Singapore Airlines accepts delivery of its first A350-900 at the Airbus Delivery Centre in Toulouse tomorrow.
Before the long-haul flights to Amsterdam begins, the new fleet will be temporarily deployed to selected Asian destinations for crew training purposes.
In July, the A350-900 will be used to add services to Dusseldorf - the newest point in the Singapore Airlines network.

If it's the former then there might be a significant chance that SMA might also land on 02C (but then OJA landed on 02L in the morning as well and it had a media event too...), but if it's the latter then I think 02L is practically locked in and confirmed.
Does someone also know when (morning/evening) and where (02L/20R or 02C/20C) did SKA land in 2007?Last edited by shikhargpt; 1 March 2016, 09:11 PM.

So it seems the gate dicates runway. SKA (T3 gate?) and OJA (C20 I think) got 02L/20R because the gates faced that runway, and ANA's R2-D2 789 got 02C because it parks at T2.

It taxied to the end of T3 for a water salute before parking at T3, which was not opened yet at that time. Not sure if 9V-SMA will get a water salute on Thursday morning.

I was in Dusseldorf Airport yesterday, and their airport newsletter has a cover page and write-up on the upcoming A350 service to Dusseldorf...
The article itself is in German, which I don't speak or read, but our Singapore Girls look good in any language
