Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

For sure changes need to happen. Informing people correctly might be where it has to st Brussels Airport is a little airport, far from being busy. I hope it will expand up 100% of its capacity. The term little is overkill, even if not at 100% of its PAX capacities, if we consider that it is the sec...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

Hello, They are difficult to be compared. SN is more like a network airline with leisure destinations. LG network covers Europe and Mediterranean leisure destinations. A big difference beside the different size is that only SN has a long haul fleet. Luxair : 2.05 million passengers transported in 20...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

I'm not an expert, but KF planes are available every day at BRU. Why not a joint venture between SN and KF to replace defective planes at the eleventh hour? KF has an ACMI business. So ?!!

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

Flying (long haul) on SN has become like playing the lottery. As long as LH refuses to invest in a decent (in size), modern long haul fleet for SN, these things will continue to happen and customers will run away. (in the meantime: 787's for OS, A350's for LX) (as for SN: "here's 1 extra 15-ye...

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines

Thai explore to order 95 new jets. Many wide-bodies. Are there talks to make them come back? By example for next spring ? Anyway great news coming from both SN and SQ. Thai has already expressed their wish to return to BRU next year "as a seasonal route" but we don't know exactly when. Fe...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

After reading all the comments (and not being an expert myself) the question which comes to mind now is : is it still worth for SN to fly to Luanda ? As crew1990 say, there is a will to keep that beloved connection alive I think at least 30 years since the Sabena days. Not far from FIH for triangul...

Re: Air Belgium in 2023

I know it's not that simple (KF is not a network Airline) but could't KF/SN/LH unify their (African) network in BRU ? Just as a win-win situation ? Besides, any such arrangement would benefit KF much more as SN already has wide use of a similar network thru the LH group and the Star Alliance. LH wo...

Re: BRU Winter 2023-2024: news, new routes, airlines

Thank you for these informations. About TG let´s hope that they will be back for the winter season. For everyone. Maybe we could visit Buthan and only Bangkok and India give a connection. As FRA or AMS connection makes the travel too much long. If no TG, first choice would be a ME3 flight, better th...

Interesting , would be great to see some new BRU-routings offered by EasyJet Agreed. Merely two destinations out of BRU for easyJet at the moment, although I seem to remember they had more than that in the past ... ?

Return of a ‘previously lost’ airline / destination also in the picture. Cannot disclose more for the time being, but from a high level and very reliable source. Guess we need to have a bit of patience. Yes, thank you. Just guesses for long haul : AA to/from PHL. SA to/from JNB (but unlikely becaus...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019

Everyone from anywhere (in Belgium or abroad) might have to take a plane at/to BRU, everyone in Brussels, in Flanders and Wallonia can share any noise disadvantage from BRU. Each at a given time might need to understand the languages of other people, so ball in the center. And back to aviation matte...

Another idea. A revival.
No mention of Brussels as a future destination but a new african player in the skies from Entebbe. With a long haul project.
