Pax B to A (shengen citizens, US, Canada): border control. So no security control? This video from BRU itself shows otherwise: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIhgm93OSjI (But I haven't seen the actual situation myself as I don't transfer). Security control from non-Shengen EU countries, the US and ...

But unbelievable that they can go to double daily on AMS while other airlines cannot. They all the time increase more at AMS like previously. From AMS there is even more competition It's surprising indeed. After LHR and JV hubs AMS is their biggest intercontinental destination while AA is quite sma...

If SN wants to grow and become a network airline, you would imagine they would work on and develop further their existing destinations. First they need smaller planes (Embraer/A220). The A319 is too big to fly multiple daily to destinations as Bristol. That's why Bristol, Hannover, Billund, Nantes,...

Now it could be those US, Canada or Euro passengers have to pass through security anyways but I fail to see the added value of a seperate border control for them when they have to undergo the same security check as people from other countries. Passengers from the EU, VS and Canada don’t need to go ...

An airport HAS to care of the airlines and the alliances. Those are their clients. To give you one example: at LHR you also have the alliances under one roof and this to make the journey of the pax more easier and the connecting time shorter. This makes LHR also more attractive even it is the busie...

Why would an airport care about the alliances and their placement? The only reason would be to accommodate transferring passengers and limit their connection time. But having the connecting passengers walk through your revenue-generating mall, and on the other hand keeping Shengen/non-Shengen split...

With less competition on the market, exit Jet Airways, it would be good if AC could consider to open a new Canadian destination ex-BRU. Vancouver was/is already for a long time on the wish list. Even it is very expensive and to get a job there, you really need to have the good "joker card"...

Ben Smith has said he wanted to make a major shake up in Africa, for Air France. Reduce the number of tag service.Probably use some aircraft such as A321LR enabling to add more flights on some destinations, where the B777 or A330 is too big. Djibouti is served only 1 time a week by AF, while Tutkis...

Well, someone traveling from/to Africa might have different expectations than what we’re used to in Europe. That it is the poorest continent reflects on all kinds of services.

Figures at SN are not good and LH won’t be pumping money in SN for ever.

Interesting. I think Christina will look at the remuneration of the pilots.

BRU is a sad example of the neo-capitalistic mentality: shareholders (and top management) first; customers, personnel, suppliers and contractors last. The dividends were enormous in the last years: 2013 67mio 2014 99,4mio 2015 45,5mio 2016 109 mio (the year of the terror attacks !!!) 2017 74mio 201...

It looks unfinished and temporary. As there is no official communication from SN, I don't believe this is the new livery.

It is 13:46, and AB should have already set up their new website... They were supposed to do it since this morning ! They were supposed to fly to China, they are supposed to fly Kinshasa, they are supposed to have a reservation site ... if I want to be sure to fly to Fort de France or Pointe à Pitr...

Recently, I took a flight from Toronto to Brussels. The gate agent checked my passport and that was it! No further passport check, no nothing ! I don't see why any country would check a passport while leaving the country ... A number of reasons: - To check if people overstayed their visa; - To catc...

Does SN have planes to effectively fly to IAH or SFO? Both are further than any airport SN flies to.

To have fares at 12€ iso 10€? Pffffff... So anyway it's no big deal! Well yes that's exactly my point. Why are you in favor of a "so anyway it's no big deal" tax ??? :shock: Nothing will change with "no big deal taxes". That's wrong, there is no magical point where taxes have an...

BRUtrend 2018 has just been published https://issuu.com/brusselsairport/docs/brutrends_2018/1?ff Nice information. I noticed that airplane movements of most Star Alliance airlines decreased, about 5% in total. This while movements of Skyteam and OneWorld airlines almost all increased. Sadly no pass...

So sad to see there were again giant problems at BRU on saturday. Now there is an operational problem every week or so. If not a strike of fire brigade or skeyes or baggage handlers or customs or immigration officers, it is technical or software problem. Or something else. For me the management of ...
