“The airline is also looking to hire extra ground staff and cabin crew, but most important Air Belgium is looking for motivated co-pilots,” a spokesman told Aviation24.be.
Air Belgium has been asked to carry out those flight because the Boeing 787 aircraft of British Airways still have issues with the Rolls-Royce Trent engines, and Qatar Airways is no longer able to provide relief aircraft as it sometimes did in the past.
