as quick as ever - and as much to the point too! Much appreciated, dear fellow!

A new Belgian record! https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2019/08/18/27-vrouwen-in-vrije-val-in-moorsele-yes-nieuw-record/ I had hoped they'd used a C130 to jump from, or even VLM - oops, Antwerp Airlines! - and their new old F50 :) but no, it was from two Cessna's - disappointment! Though it must have bee...

Point #37.1.b: it is not impossible to operate airline flights without having an active website. It would help, though

Fair enough, kzaant, no worries. Still, info from @Atlantis is usually quite dependable, I seem to understand this person works at the airport, possibly somewhere in the cargo business. You can't compare him/her to the "geeks" who indeed enjoy daydreaming - even if there's nothing wrong with that, r...

Thanks for info, @Atlantis!

I'm not a lawyer, so I am wondering if a new call for tenders may demand that the offers will not lead to a deficit situation for the bidders I am not a lawyer either, but (as I pointed out before) I am quite sure Belgian law forbids trading at a loss anyway. So that there needn't even be such a cl...

Come on, H.A., it's been 50 years since Woodstock

Has Belgium annexed Southern Poland ?

Mind you, I always said these ridiculous IATA codes are a source of confusion and mistakes.

Yes of course. As I read comments here, it is the frequency of problems with the Zaventem luggage handling system that some find unbearable. Might talk of quick-shits - if such base vocabulary may be excused for this once

Yes, I thought the same. Still, here again I trust the management to have done their homework properly. Perhaps an extra clause in the contract with Amapola, for a standby aircraft to be available? Also, may I be allowed some musing on the "ideal" plane for the ANR-LCY route? * 50 seats is plenty * ...

A later return flight would be good, yes. This is a business route, and business in London terminates later than on the Continent. But changing from 17:35 to 18:00 is not enough. Better have a return flight as late as possible, i.e. landing at EBAW just short of the curfew, with reasonable reserve. ...

Don't pay attention. Obviously having "those couple of days per month" Least said, soonest mended.

...The problems were compounded by the opening of the Brussels – Hong Kong route by Cathay Pacific. Terzakis regrets that Brussels Airport welcomed Cathay, a direct competitor, with open arms instead of favouring national companies...." I leave it to him to offer proof that CX were offered better t...

I do have a problem with lies and with liars.

Is there any other opportunity for passengers to get a drink or a bite? Both before and beyond the security check, there is the antwerpflyshop with drinks & small snacks on offer (limited seating before and about 20 cafetaria seats beyond the security check) Well, I have to agree with some earlier ...

Because for travelling to CDG - either from Brussels or from Antwerp - the Thalys/TGV is already offering good service?

Generally, I think feeder flights cannot be a prime business case; point to point traffic should be the aim.

Je kan to niet zomaar uit de ether verdwijnen 🤔 Hm, wat betekent dat lachsmoeleke nu eigenlijk? In alle geval: nee, men verdwijnt niet zomaar uit de ether, dat is waar. De bagageband valt ook niet zomaar stil ;) Alleen is de oorzaak niet altijd direct duidelijk, en soms wordt die zelfs nooit duidel...

Dankje, maar dat zijn berichten die ik op de site zelf nog wel gezien had...

24 uur later: nog steeds niet toegankelijk. En is er hier echt niemand die iets meer weet?
