Does anyone know if there is an airport website, where I can get upto date info on the status of arriving flights?

I have friends arriving on Sunday on a China Airlines flight from USA and would rather check if they are on schedule than spend hours waiting for a delayed flight!

Thanks

Try this:

http://www.ngurahrai.info/

It is very hit and miss (just like the big arrival sign at the airport itself which has been out of action for about 5 months now) and often comes up as a blank page.

the best thing is to try and get a number at the airport to call.. but beware, even when you get it, there's only a 50% chance they'll answer it. I've been standing next to an admin office at the front of ngurah rai international before and heard the phone ringing.. i was waiting for the manager, but after 30 seconds or so, i said the the young girl, "nggak angkat itu?".. she was SMS'ing somebody on her phone.. she then stopped and answered the phone.. useless.. it's very common in indonesia in general..

Thanks Guys.

SG had a look at the website and the flight is on there.... but I wonder if they update the info if it is delayed??

I think as Balilife suggested I will try and find a tel number for the airline and call for updates. I can be at the airport within 30 minutes once I know they are due, have landed!

Mimpi, usually you can ring the airlines telephone number, they have a recorded arrival details and usually state if a flight is delayed.
