Those who still think that I'm nuts should check out the Lufthansa share price today... -30%

Those who still think that I'm nuts should check out the Lufthansa share price today... -30%

What exactly is your point here? I assume you compare against the share price of 6 month ago, not a day-on-day movement as you are wrongly suggesting.
All airline shares have dropped significantly since their peak in spring.

I quickly looked it up for you. Until the end of last week, LH shares did not perform that much worse compared to other European groups. It underperformed this week, but still, not that much worse:

peak in spring until 17/09
Lufthansa -37%
Air France - KLM -32%
IAG -35%
Easyjet -34%
Ryanair -5%

peak in spring until 22/09
Lufthansa -33%
Air France - KLM -26%
IAG -21%
Easyjet -29%
Ryanair -4%

So, what was your point again?

Apologies for being off topic, back to Brussels Airlines now!

A rights issue happened yesterday, every share had one right detached, every right plus 3,85€ buys you a new share. More shares means each share is worth less money.

Does someone here know if and when SN will be resuming its direct flights to Saint-Petersburg? I haven't been able to obtain that information on the SN sites.
Apparently last one for the summer season was on Sept 11 (or 4?).

Starts to be a habit. Less direct flights for SN. All via Germany. But the same also for LOT Polisch Airlines. Also there much less direct flights. From there it goes all via Germany or Austria

Was corona the final leap to offer less direct flifgts? Travelling will not be pleasant anymore

The latest press release of SN regarding S22 offer is much blablabla about the usual seasonal market destinations (ex-TC Belgium) but it indicates that YUL route has been dumped…

On the other hand, they apparently fly (almost?) daily to Yerevan. Is that route really profitable?

[brabel]

I just checked flights to WAW and KRK and I see that SN is flying there from 27th of March onwards...
Are they gonna cancel those flights? Since they didn't put them in their summer schedule that they released a few days ago?

Good question. I would be reluctant to book those flights. They postponed the relaunch of these destinations several times in the recent past, thus being compelled to refund the tickets.

Air Canada is committed to the route and beefing up YUL as a North American hub, adding more and better-timed connections to the USA. The airport has a bypass to avoid Canadian officialdom and US pre-clearance is far more efficient than US CIS states-side (no need to claim luggage for customs). When business travel picks up, I expect the route to do very well, and Brussels Airlines will benefit as they are in the same A++ transatlantic alliance.

The route may be challenged when US pre-clearance opens up in BRU. How attractive YUL remains as an option will depend in a large part on how efficient the process is. If passengers have to show up at BRU 3 hours early to clear immigration and then still suffer through a 2, 3-hour layover stateside, Air Canada will still come out ahead, but if US pre-clearance is efficient and United re-schedules their TATL flights to cut layovers to one hour, YUL will lose a lot of its attractiveness for connecting passengers.

The last flight of Brussels Airlines to Luanda was diverted just prior to land in Luanda last Sunday because the airspace was closed without further notice due to the arrival of the Turkish president Erdogan.
So all the passengers to Luanda had to fly back to Brussels to fly the next day to Luanda again!!!!
I hope this will not stay like that this is unacceptable.
