Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021

Indeed they still didn't got the point that the glorious time aviation is now over. If they can't stand with it maybe they can do another job. Well actually, many did and came back... :roll: Not everywhere. In Belgium, for sure. But you can't blame them for their "fight" against poor cond...

Re: Boeing 737 (MAX) news

737 MAX declared "safe" by EASA. I'll wait some time to be onboard again (flew twice on it, even a few days after the first crash)... Little confidence in this sudden turnaround, no doubt caused by economic pressures ... we will have to find out from now on the type of aircraft that opera...

Funny that quote, Limburg has one of the highest deficits in Belgium, why should they not be held responsible then for their deficits?

Re: Impact of the coronavirus crisis on aviation

Brussels Airlines doesn't fully refund booked tickets to Spain, not even Flex tickets. I havea Flex ticket Brussels-Malaga r/t from September 8 till September 12. When I don't fly, it is considered a voluntary annulation, and it will still cost me € 140,00, because technically the fligth is still o...

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)...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

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...

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
