Welcome to Aviation24.be, su0229, and thanks for your input on this thread.

Indeed, I think Bart made an error in its article, HKG is a codeshare hub. "Niky Terzakis proposera de nouvelles destinations via le hub de Hong Kong", that's what Le Soir wrote. Bart did not make an error; he said that Air Belgium would like to fly to Tokyo and Cebu, but did not specify whether it...

Question Luk De Wilde: "Blijft de naam Brussels Airlines behouden?" Answer Carsten Spohr: "...Daarover beslist de CEO van Brussels Airlines. (De Duitse Christina Foerster, red.) Voor de lange afstandsvluchten lijkt een naamsverandering minder nodig. Iedereen kent Brussels Airlines in Afrika maar ni...

Bravo to Air Belgium and let's hope to see connections to TYO from October as mentioned in the article. As I understand it, the route to Tokyo (and to Cebu, Philippines) will be through a connecting flight in Hong Kong. Will that connecting flight be operated by Hong Kong Airlines? It seems that Ai...

Trump and Erdogan, two presidents with a big ego, have entered into a bitter row. What has this to do with aviation? Turkish Airlines (which was praising Erdogan in leaflets distributed on board after the failed coup d'état) has stopped advertising in the US... A neutral company would, on the contra...

Ryanair to meet with German union Ver.di in Dublin on 15 August 2018 to start pay talks for around 1,000 cabin crew members working in Germany.

Congo Airways obtained IOSA certification from IATA.

Thank you AF-KL !

Another one with a problem: SSJ100 EI-FWC BRU-VCE SN3201 returned to BRU today, after U-turn near Konstanz...

EI-FWA took over and brought the passengers to VCE with a delay of three hours and 30 minutes.

Is it so far I can not find the press release that Brussels Airlines is becoming Eurowings!!!! I imagine this is internal news from somebody??? Some articles: https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/lufthansa-group/brussels-airlines/eurowings-will-integrate-brussels-airlines-2019/ https://www.aviation24...

Wasn't even "a" UA flight that required a change of plane though carrying the same flight number throughout? I seem to remember an LAX or SFO to IAD on a 75, then boarding on a 76 to cross the Atlantic and all on the same flight number! This was called a direct flight. This was falsely called a dir...

Air France #AF192 to Bangalore (A330-200 reg. F-GZCJ) is returning to Paris CDG after U-turn above Turkey, due to technical issue - passengers to be booked on next flight tomorrow.

Let's start with the simplest case: a non-stop flight will bring you from A to B without any intermediate stop, even not a fuel stop (except for extraordinary circumstances: technical problems, adverse weather conditions, medical emergencies, etc.). A direct flight will also bring you from A to B, w...

A 1944-vintage DH89 Dragon Rapide registered N683DH (still wearing former UK registration G-AHXW) crashed at the Abbotsford Air Show in British Columbia yesterday (SE of Vancouver), injuring the pilot & 4 passengers.

New pilot strikes at Air France ? The AF pilots don't like the idea to name the number 2 of Air Canada as new CEO of Air France-KLM. Because he is not French. But is it written somewhere that the CEO of AF-KL must be French? The decision doesn't belong to them, but to the shareholders and the board ...

I have questions now that Brussels Airlines becomes eurowings.

What with the frequent flyer programme?

Remember that you can still select Miles&More on SN. Which I do myself, since I also get M&M on my SN credit card!

Finnair AY1546 (Embraer 190 OH-LKN oneworld livery) from Brussels to Helsinki declared an emergency (squawk 7700) shortly after taking off from Brussels, but eventually continued flying to destination with on-time arrival.

Beware of the troll!

We'll react at the first misbehaviour

Now the aviation24.be article about the RAM delays/strike makes sense: Royal Air Maroc (RAM) flights to Europe and Africa remain very disrupted, with flights cancelled every day since July 20 due to social tensions within the Moroccan national airline. In recent days, passengers, including families...

Test Achats/Aankoop is going to court on behalf of 50 passengers to whom Ryanair refused to pay the EU261 compensation after the cancellations of 25/26 July. Hearings will be held at the Justice de paix of Charleroi and the Vredegerecht of Zaventem. These are the 50 first claimants, members of the ...

DL43 and SN501, both flying from BRU to JFK today at approximately the same time, have taken quite different routes over the Atlantic, Delta flying much more North than SN.

Can someone explain why? The winds are the same for everybody!
