having just checked in for my flight tomorrow morning to Paris (and getting up early too) i clicked the link to check in as soon as OLCI opened and still i get SEQ025
i know that the flight is full but 25 people beat me to it in 2 mins
oh well maybe get SEQ1 on the return trip.
Trip Report (as promised in a previous thread with pictures if my iPhone battery lasts) will be posted on my return

That's a pretty bad show for 2 minutes in! Any chance OLCI sneaking opened earlier than posted?
Have a great trip! Good luck in getting SEQ1 for the return!

i had to refresh the page at 07:24 as OLCI wasn't open on my first attempt(s) so i know that i was near the front of the line at 07:25.

I agree with McMaddog - looks like there are connecting pax who would have already been checked in earlier than -24

Aer Lingus, whose normal OLCI opens 30 hours beforehand, also allow advance check-in 30 days up to 30 hours befoe OLCI. I tried to use it but you have to have selected and paid for seats. However it looks like my days of trying to score SEQ1 on EI are numbered

Now that I am in a location with wifi.
The flight on the way out was crammed only 5 or so empty seats and most of the pax were American or Canadian.
I am now waiting for olci for my return tomorrow night.

Well that was better but still missed out SEQ002 for the return flight. Better luckon my next trip - whenever that may be.

I failed miserably too - I was trying to do OLCI for about 5 mins before it was due to open. I just kept on trying until it did open - but then only got seq 7 & 8!

It's just the order that you are checked in. Seq1 means your are the first pax to check-in for that particular flight.

I can tell from your posts that you type slowly. That is probably the cause.
