You are 100% right. U happy now?

Nice attitude

A refund with tax money is quite ironic seeing that we've all collectively paid for it :roll: Mr Decroo was quite clear in parliament: SN was in negative equity, in other words: virtually bankrupt. It’s the refusal to refund bookings which kept them alive till today and as such it’s only normal tha...

... Noteworthy to me is the additional commitment of €100M by Lufthansa, which is IMHO a meaningful sign they indeed do not intend to let go of Brussels Airlines any time soon. ... ...(depending the interest rate, of which I haven't seen anything BTW)... De Croo said a lot of interesting things in ...

I still don't know why it took so long for the Belgian government to finalize the agreement with Lufthansa. What is on paper now, is what Lufthansa agreed long time ago: "an agreement in line with the agreements in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. An agreement that is good for both parties". De Cr...

De Croo did a great job here. Hopefully we’ll see our money back in 6 years.

British Airways retires it’s 31 B747’s with immediate effect

Well, was Virgin Express not a low cost carrier? The DNA of Brussels was never the one of a full service airline. So we have two positions that are not compatible. The problem is two-fold and well stated in the above two posts: The “hybrid formula” has never worked. SN was too expensive for the rea...

" ... it will postpone the extension of its flight schedule in August, due to its worsening financial situation ." Why cancel the flights if you have passengers paying for it? Say 3 (additional) A330s, flying each 5x2 flights in one week = 30 segments. 7000 Pax : 30 = 233 Pax/flight. Not a bad load...

we respect freedom of speech.

Which would be nice if we wouldn't get slated by certain member(s) everytime he/she doesnt agree with said freedom

Just asked luchtzak to delete my account. I will be able to spend my leasure time more pleasantly than being selectevly censored by administrators who lack a lot of experience in the field of communication and freedom of speech. Or some animals are more equal here than others (Animal Farm by George...

The only thing you have to be aware is that you don't kill routes and airlines on certain destinations

Thats whats called a "free market" ... in North Korea that would not be the case

Silence is the best now for the negotiations. Leaks to the press, fake or not fake, is only to make the pressure higher and lead to one party to make the decision faster. Indeed. The fact that both Lufthansa and Brussels Airlines remain silent, is ennoying some people. What an amazing day it was, F...

It might be one of the mean tricks of CS, to let SN "die", replace it at BRU by EW and offer even lower wages and worse working conditions. SN workers might be tempted (CS knows that) to accept to work for EW rather than to be jobless. As regards the slots, I presume LH can transfer SN slots to EW....

Some press reports today that LH has the intention to let SN fail as they don’t want to invest nor comply with the Belgian governments demands for state aid. And as requested by the forumist Saratoga ... what about African traffic rights? I do not think that a German company can so easily replace a...

Academics from several Belgian universities plead to completely nationalise Brussels Airlines ànd Brussels Airport. They state that aviation has to become a public sector.

I'm quite surprised to read that cabin crew could get 2800 netto per month with mid-experience... Civil engineers get less than that when they start as juniors in large companies. I have heard this too. Starting First officers in FR earn this. Cabin crew at BA have about 800-900EUR less then that. ...
