Re: Strikes affecting Belgian airports in 2024
A spontaneous strike has broken out at BRU Airport (Aviapartner). Several flights appear to have been delayed.

Re: Anomalies in BRU-ANR-CRL-KJK-LGG-OST in 2024
On saturday evening CRL was closed due to an incident during landing flight 9719 CIA - CRL, operated by Ryanair 737-800 (EI-DYC). No injuries.
It seems to be a technical problem with te nosewheel, cq torque link.
Due to te incident, several flights were diverted to BRU and LGG.

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
Interesting article on Luchtvaartnieuws today. SN would like to receive more A320neo's in the future. They are also looking for the replacement of the A330. The A330neo and B787-9 are in the picture. The A330neo is however not in the current LH group fleet. More chance for the B787-9 I think I woul...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
classy and fresh at the same time: Depressing, sad and dull are the most heard comments on different forums. The actual uniform is quite nice and fashionable, one would think there are more important tasks, at SN, to spend money and resources on. A strong brand must have accents that can be seen bo...

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines
Seems like Albania’s Albawings will open a base in Pristina and fly 2x to Brussels Which Brussels...With ageing 734 will be very expensive in BRU! A LCC with old planes and with high fees for BRU bcs its an aged plane. And they will start within 2 weeks. It's obvious that this will fail. BTW, nothi...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
Why has OO-SBA been deployed on short routes till now (CDG, LHR, MUC, FRA,..., mostly routes less than 1 hour..; except BCN)? Is this for crew familiarisation? As the engines on the 320neo are more economic than those on the 320ceo, I would have expected to see the neo on longer routes of 2 hours a...

Re: BRU Winter 2023-2024: news, new routes, airlines
On the one hand, many long haul did not yet return: e.g. Atlanta, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Shanghai ... or are operated at a reduced frequency, e.g. Tokyo. Other airports have a lot of tourism travel, such as the ones in Southern Europe, BRU has those a lot less. Holiday travel is booming. In general al...
