Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021
This is coming rather from the past. The legacy wannabe positioning of Austrian Airlines was "Focus East" - in the early 2000s they had over 100 planes, flying every small city in Eastern Europe and the Balkans. The bad thing is that the model wasn't flying, so ultimately they ended up wi...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021
This would depend a lot on how the industry will look like in 10 years and how the brand and the product will be structured. As of today, BRU is used by the group as a Western Africa focused minihub. Maybe 2030 this won't make a lot of sense, eg if TAP would be acquired by LH. Narrow body P2P to th...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021
But if the situation is that bad and management has been repeatedly warned about it, the last resort is to go on strike, maybe for some selected flights as a starter/last warning. A strike in such an environment would be plain stupid. I hope they realize that. I couldn't agree more. I was just reac...

Whilst I assume most people following the forum have a basic understanding of all official languages used within Belgium, just to make sure: "harass-the-passangers-action" is not a correct translation of "stiptheidsactie", the correct translation would be "work-to-rule acti...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021
SN seems to have some difficulty sorting out their flight numbers for the Afi flights.
For example the BRU-Banjul-Dakar-BRU triangular rotation uses 217 or 221 or 317. Any sense to that?

Alitalia is running out of cash just as negotiations with the EU to create a new national carrier are at a standstill. On the line are the €3 billion Italy is ready to inject into the new company.

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
To me there are 3 possibilities. Third possibility: Network department and fleet department messed up and didn't realised yet that there is too much flight for the number or aircraft available and then flight would be cancelled. So, the flights planners didn't know how many aircraft they could use?...

I'm wondering if Brussels Airlines could take over a A330 from the Eurowing ops for the summer? When you look at the summer time table, it looks like this: Monday 8 A330 Dakar/Banjul Abidjan/Cotonou Accra/Lomé Douala/Yaoundé Entebbe/Kigali Kinshasa New York Washington Tuesday 9 A330 Dakar/Banjul Ab...

Eurowings Discover (the new name of Lufthansa's Ocean project) to begin operating flights from Frankfurt to Barcelona and Rome on behalf of Air Dolomiti, beginning 01 April 2020 with A330-200s. Did you get it? Don't let April Fool's day fool you, André. Not last year, not this year, not next year!
