Record of the registrations of the aircraft I have flown on.?

Question

For over 30 years I have kept a record of the registrations of the aircraft I have flown on. Recently however I have missed several of them mostly from Dublin, Paris and Verona and all operated by subsidiaries of Air France. Where can I find the information I need to update my log?

Answer 1

The airlines themselves will be ABLE to tell you which planes flew each 'slot', but they might not be WILLING.

Unfortunately, they are likely nowadays to be suspicious about your reasons for asking (nobody's quite sure what information would be useful to a terrorist, so any request might seem scary).

Presumably, you've tried 'customer information' at Air France, and been fobbed off by a call centre?

Face-to-face contact is much better, especially with uncommon requests. If you are travelling near to the HQ of any of the lines in question, you might consider calling in personally. Take your previous logs (or copies if you're worried about losing the originals), as well as a clear list of the missing flights. It might be handy to plan for staying nearby for a couple of days. The best person to talk to might be too busy when you arrive, or away from the office.

As you have been an interested and enthusiastic customer, the companies SHOULD be keen to help you get the most out of flying with them; they might also see a benefit to themselves if you were willing to be photographed & interviewed for their in-flight magazine or staff newsletter, as a 'human-interest' story.

Answer 2

Check the Air France and Citijet websites. The reg's are not on there, but you can post a query to Op's and they can tell you which a/c reg's you were on for a specific date and flt no.

Why?
