AMS is more difficult to get the jump seat, e.g. you will not go on until all of the pax have been boarded. Like I said its been awhile.
Not exactly correct. All 330's have 3 jumpseats, 2 on the flight deck and 1 in the crew rest area that can be used for TO/LNDG. You will not be able to clear immigration/customs as a jumpseater. If you are an offline pilot, you will need a seat in the back so the above may not matter anyway.
