Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

About the wi-fi discussion it is important especially on long haul knowing that they are also day flights I find that it's missing very hard and it is really not a luxury anymore!
From Luanda it's only Brussel Airlines and RAM flying without WiFi.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024

You know the crew are overnighting in “tents” in a National Park lodge close to Ndjili. Why are they not in a hotel? Might not have looked in the right places but I couldn't find out.

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines

EASA is a guiding line That's why I asked what BRU airport is using. EASA, the European Aviation Safety Agency is probably not reliable for Belgian politics ;) DL is still flying with the B767 bcs they don't have enough new planes to use them to BRU as for them is not a main destination which AMS a...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

In terms of seating it depends where in the cabin you look (compared to SN's standard A320) - First row is the same - Then you have 5 rows at 31" followed by 4 at 30" vs. 9x30" on the A320ceo - First 9 rows are reclinable, at a higher degree than the (unitil now standard) Recaro seat...
