Re: Air Belgium in 2023

Nicky Terzakis also said new money will be needed to get more planes and expand the network. At the moment, most of the revenue is because...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2022

To briefly come back to a controversial (but to some extent) minor subject : after two years of working from home, I took my first flight again yesterday from BRU. I did not fly SN, but saw "in real life" their new livery : personally, I find it even uglier in "real life" than o...

Re: Air Belgium in 2018

There are currently two C class sections: one with 30 seats in the front, and one with 15 seats behind the second door. The latter is considered as their Premium class. A nice upgrade, before the real Premium class is introduced for the Winter season! True with OO-ABB, you get the second C class se...

Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?

I'm still not convinced about CRL, particularly due to the runway length and the penalty it induces in payload and full power take off but I guess if the business model works they'll go for something more efficient later on. The runway length is not really a penalty for them, no real demand for air...

For the cabin, they'll keep the Finnair layout and in-flight system ?

Re: Belgian Air Force tankers?

NATO has plenty refuelling capacity as it is. But the A400M would make a pretty good all-weather tanker given its significant useful load and fuel tank capacity. The A330MRTT is a ridiculously expensive and unnecessary choice for the tiny little BAF. Each Working Belgian would have 300 Euro's taken...
