Looks like finally there is a good looking Airbus!

@AirOpinion it was a chef d'equipe and choked the plane on our left, you think he doesn't know how to choke a plane on our right side? I can understand everyone is paid to do their job and this can include types of jobs you don't usually do. But there is a difference between being flexible and bein...

Workload is not only weight... One reason for the strike is that swissport wants to implement split shifts for the loaders, 10 hour shifts, 3 hour shifts, ... I can understand that for these people flexibility has its boundaries. At the same time they notice that with this flexibility they don't eve...

Brussels Airport will open its crisis centre as soon as possible. All stakeholders in...

WInglets maybe?

We're making a mistake in this debate... JAFs passengers are not the EK nor EY passengers! They are the ones who don't really mind to sit 10h in a plane as long as they have their wonderful holiday in the UAE. (Most of) These people do not know anything about aviation or the luxury on board the bigg...

I don't really get the idea of a technical stop at PFO... operational wise that is a place you'll want to avoid.

What would cheap travelling Africans contribute to our society?
In this case I would rather have one airline transporting pax in a very controlled environment than a free market where the only concerns is the ticket price.

They wanted to concentrate on running intercontinental flights, but I bet quite a few passengers on those flights would not be travelling owing to the fact that their connecting flight into Munich or Frankfurt has been cancelled! that is true... however in the outstations there are thousands of pas...

but the music

@Bralo20: It is not allowed to transport valuables (VAL) on all carriers, most carriers don't allow them for... security reasons!

btw they should have had good information... how could they know that it was an helvetic plane operating for Swiss?

It is true to that ultimate safety is not the goal... but you can make an effort!
I have a simple sollution for the fence drive-through! Make a one meter wide moat next to the fence, they did it in the middle ages...

@Flanker2: you are right... although for thousands of people working at the airport it is not really difficult to see ! So that one post doesn't really mather. Let's not forget that in this case BRU is not only respossible for the security of passengers... but also for all the airport staff that wor...

This is no suprise to me... The security checks for cars are a joke in BRU! I doubt they even check the nummerplate of your car? If it wears the airside sticker and you have a valid driver license you are ready to go! With all respect, but if I were a gangster I wouldn't really care about the securi...

How such a small plane can bring down an entire airport operation

You can't blame them! Compared to Flightcare's service, Aviapartner is a much better partner. But will Aviapartner be able to cope with the increase of flights. In the morning, on a freezing day, de-cing delays run up already... and as usual, you get what you pay for. Anyway that doesn't take away t...
