Another perfect example of "We'd love to but we can't..." Reminds me of African airlines. A little bit of paint here, a sticker there. Anything they can find. Very professional! Real class! Keep it up! :roll: What a pitty that b.air does not have such "talented" people as you......

To be clear: for the time being everything is business ... Ok, then I can understand! Normally when I combine bflex one way with blight one way the rates are mostly more expensive (or not so much difference) as when combining bflex with bflex. Probably the reason is the lack of blight booking class...

Nice one Rutger! This time I can agree with a nice sideshot...perfect situation :wink: Chris...superb :o Some noticable loss in quality but those pictures are very very nice!

Looking good, Danny! I assume (when I see the destinations) that there are some business trips included? Combing bflex with blight is a bit strange...only logical to me seems a combined code share flight with a "real" SN flight? At this moment following is planned for me: mar/08 Brussels-B...

Concerning LH, KL and MP, it is mainly for their MD-11's which indeed go there for the heavy maintenance. ( From reliable sources :wink: )

@Fly4Hours.be: Wrong. A businessman doesn't want to have a 5 stars meal, an extra stewardess, lounges. The average businessmen of today want to fly as fast as possible and as flexible as possible. A businessmen wants to arrive max. 1 hour before flight (b.flex allows 30 min.) no waiting at check-in...

Something we don't hear everyday, congratulations indeed.

In the era of Sabena a lot was possible, Bart :wink:
Don't think that it is possible now, could be off course.

Correct voor shorthaul vluchten, maar voor zover ik weet is pre-seating op longhaul vluchten bij British Airways geen enkel probleem. Hierbij is de boekingsklasse ook niet relevant: restricties op pre-seating zijn bij mijn weten enkel afhankelijk van de cabine waarin je geboekt hebt (tenzij je mij ...

Beste,

24 uur voor vertrek van de vlucht kan je online inchecken.
Als uw vlucht om 12uur lokale tijd in LHR vertrekt kan u in principe al rond 13uur Belgische tijd de dag voordien online inchecken en uw seat bepalen.

As easy as it gets...

Mvg,

Noel,

Dit komt bij meer en meer maatschappijen voor dat je niet op voorhand je seat kan kiezen...heeft soms ook te maken met de boekingsklasse...geen dikke onzin dus!

Hi Comet, Many thanks for the kind report! I am not surprised about the level of service VLM offers...for me the only Belgian company really offering A service (sorry Brussels Airlines). Never heard complaints so far as exception that we can't book seats in advance. I really still wonder why they im...
