Doesn't european law require an environmental study now prior to change departure routes at airports ? I think I saw a statement of Minister Bellot recently about that for departure routes from BRU.
Or maybe FedEx tries to have those LGG departure routes changed before that law !

Whats the source of your aerial img btw ?
It seems quite recent

Straight from SOWAER ! That was provided during an information session tuesday February 17th !

In their 2018 activity report, they even mention a change in flight procedures. I don't know what they mean ! I heard FedEx asked for SID changes at LGG. The current SID's are (to say the least) completely inefficient, probably even more in the eyes of americans ;) That would be in contradiction wi...

Icelandair Cargo signed an agreement with FedEx and TNT, by which it will significantly increase its frequency to daily flights at Liege Airport. https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/icelandair/icelandair-cargo-signs-agreement-with-fedex-and-tnt-with-a-significant-frequency-increase-at-liege-airport/...

The shorter runway is going to be extended until 3300 meters... Indeed. As Liege Airport plans to close RWY 04R/22L for renovation works (around year 2026), RWY 04L/22R will be first extended to 3300 meters in order to accomodate wide bodies during closure of RWY 04R/22L.

Next ones to be relocated will probably be Heli&Co !

No surprise it was only a few charters (no, the idiots didnt win)

It was indeed a contract for 6 charter flights, but it has been agreed not to accept such a contract anymore !
So the "idiots" might still have won a battle

The jeddah flights started, with 777.
But the rest is very weird and yet to be confirmed

Some flights between Jeddah-Liege-JFK should be operated by Air Atlanta Icelandic B747-400F on behalf of Saudia Cargo. Air Atlanta Icelandic is already operating 7 passengers B747-400 for Saudia.
