Nice report

Congrats! Does it involve a relocation to LHR?

So it's not illegal to declare oneself unfit for duty based on emotional state. Well if he's still so emotional today that he is unfit to work, then a doctor should probably order he take a few months off, and re-evaluate after that. Can't have our lives in the hands of these highly emotional people.

I can't judge them unless we know the exact circumstances that lead to that. You can judge them. If they want to take industrial action that is their right, and there is a whole procedure to follow. These guys were completely irresponsible and immature and engaged in an illegal strike. Judge them o...

What do you want them to do? Calling in sick is not exactly illegal... You would fire them for it? Good luck with the law suits coming up... Of course I know it's a strike in disguise... But you people seem to think that anything can be done at anytime to do something against this sort of actions. ...

If they cannot make it work, they should say. And airlines shall use regional airports for a little longer. It was proven to work good. Indeed, it sounds like they need to scale back, and send more traffic back to the alternative airports. They clearly cannot cope with this number of flights, half ...

(No flights didn't help of course, but Japanese travel agents recommend Japanese stay in small area around the Grand' Place).

Like Brussels BRU, Rome Fiumicino FCO would also give nice connection distances from Brazil to Peking, and would offer a lot more code share possibilities with Vueling for example...

Brasília - Peking = 10,523 miles
Brasília - Brussels - Peking = 10,529 miles

Rio de Janeiro - Peking = 10,761 miles

The lack of public transport is a scandal. They should allow all De Lijn buses and the one STIB/MIVB bus that typically operate to the airport to operate again, even if they need to foresee a new bus stop area.

Aer Lingus returns tomorrow, April 5th, but will only operate Dublin 6x weekly (instead of 15x weekly) until May 1st. They will only operate their evening flight, everyday except Saturdays.

Brussels Airport Police threaten to strike. They want all passengers to amass in a tent first and have their luggage screened there. Seems to me that this plan would just move a bomber's target from the hall to the tent. Looks like they want a few more days off

The ANA aircraft which needed to divert to Düsseldorf on Tuesday, will fly back to Tokyo Narita on Thursday evening, departing DUS at 18h local. ANA will operate it as a passenger flight, but tickets were not for sale through regular channels. Instead ANA have been offering the seats to passengers d...

ANA has cancelled all BRU flights until April 1st.
