But Air Malta maintains its Brussels flights ;)

Now each of the two main Belgian airports has its daily Malta flights.
But Air Malta does certainly not offer the same low prices!!!

Re: Ryanair in 2018

Besides, with Brussels Airlines now an integral part of Eurowings, I wonder why Brussels hasn't started counting customers of Eurowings to/from our country as well? Ryanair adds all of their Belgian passengers up too, regardless whether they fly on Belgian based planes or not. Why not go one step f...

Re: Ryanair in 2018

At this morning's press conference, MOL revealed that Ryanair would like to increase the number of its stationed aircraft in Brussels from four possibly to eight, once it takes delivery of the B737 MAX200s in 2019. These aircraft make less noise, which will enable additional departures between 6 an...

Re: Ryanair in 2017

British Airways just decided to add seats in its A320/A321 fleet. And thus we have this paradoxical situation: LCC Ryanair provides more comfort than legacy airlines. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C6UJYXdWgAAM5kk.jpg I always found there is more space in Ryanair planes than legacy airlines.

Re: The one and only topic on which runway in use @EBBR

I am really puzzled at how they decide to use 07L for landings, rather than 01. Yesterday, during most of the day, 07L was used while the wind was 050 less than 8 knots (4 or 6). Today the wind is 060 14knots which is a lot and runway 01 is used! This does *not* make sense and I'd like to have your ...

Re: WOW announcing services from BRU !

Flemish newspaper De Morgen did a test: "New York as from 169 Euro" is just a one-way, they say, it's not possible in June 2017 (De Morgen only found a return for 393,38 Euro) and it's excluding luggage. De Morgen even writes the basic fare excludes (hand)luggage. And it excludes seating....

Re: Reopening Brussels Airport after the 22/03/2016 terror attacks

Hello community! I avoided booking flights in the past weeks because I cannot be at the airport 3h before (I'm flying short-haul and short fligths, I generally go max 40 min before). When do you think the airport will be operating normally with no checks, or at least not huge lines? I want to buy so...

Re: Round trip on Ryanair + the most beautiful approach into BRU I ever experienced.

well, watching your video I could see my street (Coteaux, Schaerbeek) but it's much nicer when you're sitted on the left cos you see the whole historic centre. BTW, I don't understand why tody 07L is not in use. For hours, we have strong Eastern winds, now it's even 110 14K and it's still runway 01....
