Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
And with 2 daily A320 from CDG to BRU sometimes even 3, how many Parisian travelling through BRU to connect to Africa... you can see it the other way around the only factor is prices and a flight "BRU"-CDG-FIH will often be cheaper than a direct BRU-FIH and the other way around. Even if I...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Does anyone know what is SFB doing in Manchester?
BTW, SFG is apparently AOG at Yaoundé.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
And last but not least look at the destinations SN is flying : to what extend technical problems are not caused by the reality that in sub Saharan Africa you might not have the local skills, spare parts available and generally the infrastructure for state of the art aircraft? In those markets often...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
It may not be the youngest machine, but for the cabin that probably hardly matters. Going by airfleets.net it was reactivated for Lufthansa (in the new colour scheme) in April 2022 after being stored in June 2021. I would be surprised if it didn’t receive at least a refreshed cabin in that time fra...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
.... SN flew to Mumbai (then called Bombay) in the seventies with B727s and B707s on the southern route to Manilla, Tokyo and some other Far East destinations; maybe also with DC-10 s. Affirm. I once flew back from Bangkok, then out of Don Mueang as it was around 87-88 in another century. The fligh...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
But SN was already flying to India under the embrella of LH. I don't think so. A few years back, Jet Airways had daily flights (with excellent Business Class, btw) between BRU and Delhi and Mumbai with continuation from BRU to US and/or Toronto. But they were discontinued several years ago. SN flew...

Strangely, the crash ot Prigojin's flight hasn't been mentioned here. It looks like it would be worth looking at the path that plane followed, under instructions from the Control Tower. It seems to have brought it coincidently right above the bettery of missiles that alledgely shot the plane.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Air France and Lufthansa have a much bigger fleet than SN giving them much more flexibility, do you really think that with only 9 aircraft we will use one of them for a rotation of more than 30h, more than half of it on the ground in LAD not making any revenue? It woud simply be loss making. I know...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Although the group is still in the reds, the improvement over Q1 of last year is remarkable, especially for Swiss that is the only airline to report a positive EBIT. And the forecast for the full year 2023 is encouraging for the whole group. Don’t forget EBIT is before interest and tax! SN has a ne...
