Today, you can compare SN with easyJet .. and it doesn’t
Look good in comparison.. overpriced and increasingly inferior service.. LY is definitely the best option to TLV.
Problem is that they don’t fly on Shabbat.
Like A3 is a better option to Athens..

Re: Lufthansa in 2019
United Airlines (my own FF) is doing the same... status linked to USD spent and no more on flown miles. Unless they introduce # of sectors to qualify Senator like they do for frequent traveler, many of their premium pax will loose their status.. and most probably their loyalty to M&M and star a...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Hi, Just think of ... they decide that Belgium is the perfect symbiose of French and dutch speakers.. and AF/KLM set up a small child of them here ,let's call it Air Brussel.... A bunch of embraers and B737 ... And a morning A333 for a nice connection in AMS... Or Emirates , Norwegian to JFK-BOS......

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
what's another 3 euro for water, if you can afford 600 euro for a very short flight It’s like going to a coffee house, paying paying EUR 15 For a regular (almost mediocre) espresso.. and still being charged 1 EUR for sugar and another for milk! Not a good feeling! It is all about the principle.. In...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Service on business is also reduced dramatically.. That was the case already a few months back... Problems is that business tickets within Europe can cost around EUR 1000. I think that it is scandalous that one needs to pay for water after having spent almost 600 EUR for a 50 min flight On flex&...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Btw speedy boarding on easyjet is actually better and cheaper. 1. Easyjet .. cancellation and full refund of ticket is possible up to 24 hours after booking. 2. Change of reservation and name is possible against a small fee.. up to hours before departure 3. Speedy boarding includes priority boarding...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
I flew on 25/10 F&F with complimentary service. The flight attendant told me the compl. serv. would stop on 31/10. My next F&F flight was on 5/11 and indeed no more drinks for free. Don’t think it is the smartest decision. Not for the little cost itself but as a service for their customers ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
For me the most catastrophic fact for this summer 2019, is not the dispatch reliability (which is at the average level of the other years, even slightly improving) but the horrific PUNCTUALITY figures. I'm not sure that operationally speaking, mixing both the main line operations and the charter op...

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future
I'm not sure boring is the right term. Repitive covers it better, I guess. And they have to stay focused since everybody who entered but wasn't supposed to can be traced back to the officer who let him in. And all that with hundreds or even more people queuing and being pissed off (understandably) ...

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future
Why don't federal "policemen" like to work at BRU ? The answer to this question is crucial to solve the problem. A simple (simplistic) solution to the problem is money. They will love to work at BRU if they are paid more (for instance, through bonuses). There is no money you will say. OK,...
