Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
Like Lux_avi rightly pointed it out : how sure can you be that workers from ground staff to pilots at other airlines will not go on strike (even at Ryanair) ? Without even mentioning ATC (and not in Belgium only). Perhaps the best option is to go on holidays somewhere reachable by car ? Workers in ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
.... and as expected the strike will go ahead. I think I'll book my summer trip to Spain with Iberia or Vueling. I want peace of mind without the constant threat of strikes with SN. (it's really disastrous for their image but they don't seem to care, so be it) Exactly. Now now it goes about details...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
Any news on OO-SBC? I'm under the impression deliveries at SN seem to take longer than other airlines, but for sure I'm not an expert and probably wrong. It was spotted end of January at TLS, already painted in the new "measles" livery of SN, however still wearing the test registration F-...

Re: Airline bankruptcies, ceased operations, restructurations
A journalist from Brazzanews reports that "a source" told him that ECair's HB-JJE (Privatair 757-200) will soon take the sky: https://twitter.com/brazzanews/status/1758876049813667986 I call that rumor "BS": the aircraft mentioned is certainly NOT the HB-JJE, as they would need ...

Re: Strikes affecting Belgian airports in 2023
Self-declared "civil disobedience movement" Code Rouge is planning disruptions at airports in Belgium between 15-17 December 2023, probably peaking on 17 December. It's one of the groups showing little respect to laws, regulations, foreign property or aviation safety, recklessly pushing th...

Aviation24.be will be on-site to cover the event. Will Aviation24.be also provide information about the timing so that others will get the chance of catching the new plane as well? Flightradar24 will do, no worry LOL. It's just that FR24 and Brussels Airport's Instagram quite contradict each other:...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
LH has a strong presence in India. They want us to fly to FRA/MUC and connect there on an LH flight (and vv). No competition allowed from SN. My two cents... Air India is also operating to VIE, so transiting through there would also be a possibility (surely easier and faster than through nightmaris...

Re: The one and only topic on which runway in use @EBBR
As of 06.06. around 10, rwy 07R/25L was not anymore active (despite northeasterly winds which would make 01 the primary rwy for landings and 07R the primary rwy for takeoffs) due to maintenance. At the moment single rwy ops 01, probably until 1800LT today. Edit: The works are a bit more complex, be ...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
From day 1 LH has treated SN like an unwanted child. And while it's true they have helped them to stay afloat, it is only this bare minimum they have done for SN. Nothing more. While LX and OS are getting 787's or A350's, SN gets old second hand A330's to replace even older A330's. (and almost week...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
The first A320Neo for Brussels Airlines has been spotted at Airbus Toulouse: F-WWIJ c/n 11600 to become OO-SBA. (I believe it’s the 3rd time that this reg is used on a Belgian Airplane) OO-JFP Indeed, the registry was first used for a C-47 and then an A321 which was used by VLM in all-white livery ...

Re: Anomalies in BRU-ANR-CRL-LGG-OST in 2023
After having discovered something (most probably a technical glitch) that made them turned around, they had to either burn or dump fuel to avoid an overweight landing back into BRU.
