    Is there any way of finding out the reg number of a plane I travelled on a few weeks ago?

    Is there any website that might have that information?

    All I can think of is Planespotters. They have the full list of Registrations.

    Unfortunately you've left it slightly too late.

    http://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/ek384 only goes back to last 30 or so days, so 19 Sep is probably too far back for most places.

    Flightstats only says that it was an A380-800 but not the reg.

    Is that the reg number on the front wheel?

    I took photos of one of my planes, I'll have a look.

    Edit, it looks like A6-EDU

    It's worth checking out the Libhomeradar site where you can search back further than 30 days. The times quoted are UTC (basically GMT).

    http://www.libhomeradar.org/databasequery/

    As far as I can make out you flew on the following aircraft:-

    19/09 A6-EDU
    03/10 A6-EDI
    05/10 A6-EDH

    Thanks for that. A bit of a head wrecker trying to work out the times with UTC times!

    My flight on the 19th (03.05 Dubai scheduled take off time) would have left on the 18th UTC - A6-EDU

    The pic above is the flight on October 3rd from Bkk to HKG, A6-EDU

    The flight on the 5th (00.35 Hong Kong scheduled take off time) would have left on the 4th UTC, A6-EDS

    I'm open to correction on all of those times!

    Thanks again for the help :)
