I really hope that the Belgian population will BOYCOT Eurowings as much as possible: why should Belgians fly with a lousy low cost co...

Please explain how this is to do with 'politics'.
Really? In Belgium? How can it not be politics that’s involved?

Indeed. Daily between BRU and China I meant. So daily between BOTH PEK (-2-4-67) and SHA (1-3-5--). Easy to check out by reading the joined the timetable.
In that case you write 'daily between BRU and EITHER PEK and SHA. 'Both' suggests daily flights to PEK and daily flights to SHA.
