B: Sure. I'll be seeing her this evening, so I'll tell her then. What time will your friends be arriving tomorrow?

In these examples will be -ing is similar to the present continuous for the future. You can use Will you be -ing...? To ask about somebody's plans, especially if you want something or want them to do something. For example:

A: Will you be passing the post office when you're out? B: Probably. Why? A: I need some stamps. Could you get me some? A: Will you be using your bicycle this evening?
