Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

I prefer to fly long haul on a A321 or 757 than a wide body last flight I did was Porto NY (Y) with a 757 its very confortable.

Re: BRU Winter 2024 - 2025: news, new routes, airlines

Hi, there is already an existing topic BRU Winter 2024-2025. Maybe you can move it there to avoid double topics And regarding Thai it was already mentioned in that topic on the 4th February Saw it too late, I'll have to wait for a moderator. And yeah, it was never confirmed. Officially not, but we ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

And another comment/question. Is it not a pitty that the Big Boss apparently discards the A321LR ? As Boston is really a short intercontinental flight, wouldn't this aircraft not be totally appropriate ? Same for a double daily flight to Dakar (trafic rights permitting) ? Just asking... I'm agree w...

Hopefully now they can have a good year so that next year they can grow more, preferably without strikes.

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

For the moment not or nothing in near future. There are more places in that area where buildings were demolished and was just used as parking for staff afterwards. Thanks for the info. Are there other buildings that will also be demolished ? Great to see Soviet buildings disappear. This whole stree...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

I've read the strike will cut the (fragile!) profits in half... Well done pilots and all parties involved, well done! :roll: Don’t judge unless you work there and really know what this is all about. But how is this possible a weak company has this one, I don't blame any party but it it's threatening!

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

Not only passengers are frustrated, but travel agencies are now reluctant to book customers on Brussels Airlines, especially if they have a connection with Lufthansa (StrikeHansa) at Munich or Frankfurt. It's not only Brussels Airlines, but the whole Lufthansa Group that is affected. I bet they boo...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

What I don't understand with pilots is that it's the top of the social basket; they can find a job wherever they want in any other company, why go on strike? Yeah well, there is already a significant exodus to other airlines. But for sure, it’s also very easy to quit everything you have in Belgium,...

Re: Brucargo 2024: cargo routes & news

Maybe I am reading way too much into it but I’m wondering if the new lufthansa cargo is a sign for things to come - apart from the press release itself about the growing partnership between LH, UA and SN I wouldn’t call two flights a week a “sign”. Why not? That's exactly a sign or the beginning of...

They are a connecting Partner, even they are a budget airline.
So yes, there may be a Code sharing coming, if Air China is not stepping in.
LH likes JV's.
JV's?
Joint ventures

For pilots they mention tax that is too high at Brussels Airport has main problem for the low profit.

Although I do not understand that the flights are not nicely spread over the 7 days of the week :?

Cheers,

But it's not the same airline they are competing so they don't have to spread it they just look at there own schedule.
