For those two SN-flights, which flights are cancelled/delayed? Or where these planes otherwise just standing still at BRU? There are less flights during the winter schedule, thus planes are easily available. Why don't they use those available planes in the winter schedule to (new) "business de...

None of those stands had double boarding bridges in the past, I feel like you’re thinking of 233. That stand is A380 capable, with double bridges. Whether or not double bridges will be installed, I have no clue, but I do think others on this forum might. 233 is a triple bridge A380 capable gate. On...

Did Saudia leave Brussels completely? And why it was a long term client! Thanks They moved towards Germany if I'm not mistaken. The same reason as why others have left: A combination of service levels and/or freight demand. One as a consequence off the other. (I just can conclude that some things w...

From oct 28 EY will be flying a temporary T7 full freight service from BRU.

And this is the root cause of the linguistic problems in Belgium. Will any Walloon company translate every communication in Dutch if they have no sites situated in Flanders? I doubt it. But when french speaking people come to work or live in Flanders they want any communication in French. Why? becau...

The impact of Wamos taking over Neckermann is not completely clear yet, but at least there is hope that they will take over some Thomas Cook business. Wamos have an ultra low cost airline branch, so either SN will have to offer very cheap flights either they will operate the flights themselves by f...

Been working on a project for BKO recently. Till August there were also 7 weekly flights to ORY in addition to the AF dailies to CDG. 4 Aigle Azur and 3 Corsair. ET flies a weekly T7 cargo from BRU and CV has an irregular 74 from LUX. H.A. ET towards BKO? They have a positioning flight BKO-BRU as f...

Saudia Cargo adds Liège Airport to its network https://aircargoworld.com/allposts/saudia-cargo-adds-liege-airport-to-network/ Really sad that they left BRU because of the noise restrictions of the Brussels capital. Cargo is really suffering Not only due to the noise restrictions in this case.

in case of a snowstorm grounding the plane my bet is on IAD rather than BRU.

In short: * Rumours about flights to Geneva, Zurich, Hamburg, Munich, Manchester and even Tel Aviv. No company mentioned or insinuated. * Parking P2 will be expanded, old buildings will be broken down as Parking P3 will become a bus-garage for De Lijn. * Antwerp Airport is profitable, but discussio...

Just a though, but could the long MX time have something to do with the lack of spares for the new type of engines and so on?
I can imagine that supplies are low for the moment as they are switching to the newer A333 type. Especially if it's involving some less prone to fail pieces.

I have made more specific researches about the B31 - B33 triple gate at BRU. Informations collected from last year but interesting. Learning about an issue. As a reminder, the whole infrastructure has cost a 6 millions € budget. A confirmed chinese technology used wordwide and for the first time at...

They needed a reason to extend the runway, don't think anyone else was candidate to play such a role.

I got some exciting news about 2020 but i’m not 100% sure since it’s viavia I heard it from someone who knows someone working for BAC. Apparently Brussels Airport is working hard behind the scenes to attract new airlines! -we can welcome soon Asiana! -Singapore Airlines interested in starting a rou...

As from Monday 12th August 2019: major road works on the R11 Krijgsbaan Borsbeek-Wilrijk, just next to Antwerp Airport: http://wegenenverkeer.be/node/6588 That should have no impact at all on the airport or its passengers: the terminal is on the other side, so from either way to the airport, you do...

Did they create cargo capacities in CRL? (handling and whs)

"... the CEO says that AB is the only one who is allowed to talk about their plans and AB wasn't even contacted for the article on L'Echo..." "...Air Belgium won't make any comment about this article. Info given are the only responsability of the source (SOGEPA), which is one of the ...

Won't comment on this as any remark will be seen as political and thus not allowed on this forum.

For those who say that Brussels Airport doesn't invest enough: "investment expenses" BAC in 2018: 176.900.000 € (source: National Bank Belgium). Nobody stated the contrary... offices and shops to let aren’t built for free... Stij 2 firehouses, multiple de-icing trucks, snow clearing equip...

I just received an e-mail from LOT informing me the flight number changed. So far, all Nordica flights already had a LOT flight number (LO8XXX) Now it's LO2977/LO2978 iso LO8177/LO8178 So, I wonder what's the logic behind it? Or a particular reason? Timing and aircraft stay the same Airlines use nu...
