Yes, indeed. The 777 flights are already announced to go. 763 will replace on the ORD service. AA JFK service is expected to be cancelled. I guess DL will upgrade to 763 then? Last AA 777 flight to ORD will be operated on November, 21. On November 22, the 763 resumes the service. AA flight 171 (757...

With US serving BRU only 4 or 5 times a week this winter, I don't think SN needs to expect much feeder from them, but UA and CO combined will definitely do a good job replacing AA, no worries. US BRU-PHL will become seasonal, the last flight will be on October, 27 2009. No US flights during the win...

It could be a nice headline in the newspapers though :mrgreen:: "Brussels Airport Company is telling aviation enthousiast to keep their mouth shut" Or even better "BAC makes threats to aviation enthousiasts" (since the media is always adding a little spice to it) Man man man, in ...

It's indeed not nice but we have to act like a gentlemans agreement: wait before the airport or an airline announce something new. If the press will publish rumours (many times the last couple of weeks) its their problem but a forum is like a feeder flight for an airline. You can pick up some very ...

You take a fully loaded 747 and climb it from FL100 to FL340...while attempting this, you switch of the two outboard engines. Furthermore, you also reduce the thrust on the two remainig engines to about 90%...now, my question to you: what do you expect the plane to do ? And let's not get into the n...

Mace is actually a brand of teargas (main substance: chloroacetophenone)... and commoly used to describe any brand of teargas.

No specific dangerous but very irritating and probably also an illegal weapon.

No dates (yet) but some plans:

- Las Vegas (depending if and when Céline Dion starts a new show )
- San Francisco or Los Angeles
- Montréal

And maybe some other destinations, depending on available free time

Even though it might end up like that, De Tijd mentions that Cargo B stops operations, but also that they are not filing for bankrupcy yet. Is this information then not correct? Cargo B Airlines is indeed not bankrupt... They will suspend all activities but are not filing for bankruptcy (yet). But ...

Some news in the financial newspaper "De Tijd": http://www.tijd.be/nieuws/ondernemingen_diensten/Mayday_voor_Cargo_B_Airlines.8203527-431.art (only dutch) Quick Translation: Mayday for Cargo B Airlines: Belgian airfreight carrier Cargo B Airlines is strugling to stay alive but the chance i...

Greetz!

OO-CBB is standing still in LGG
OO-CBC & OO-CBD, both brand new B744F's are standing in AMS.

Hmm... If C2000 is failing in The Netherlands I even don't want to know how the ASTRID network will handle itself during a real crisissituation in Belgium... ASTRID has failed before even in non crisissituation (whole network was down about a bit more then a year ago during a faillure at the servers...

Where too? The captain may have died deep into the flight, well over the ocean... Since there is no real urgency any longer (the poor guy sadly passed away), there's no need to go off-route and land asap somewhere in the arctic regions at a small emergency airport; better just continue to the plann...

SN is 10 EUR cheaper than LH,but I rather pay 10 EUR more and take a flight with CRJ200 instead of the AR85. ( never flown CRJ before) Some suggestions,argruments, opinions... I'll take the AR85 anytime before the CRJ200. Flew with the CRJ a couple of months ago in the USA/Canada with AC Jazz and t...

Oh,

A strange thing happened... For once the Priority luggage tags actually worked, my luggage was first on the belt in LAS. Strange thing

Especially since my luggage was last of the belt in BRU on the return trip (also with priority tags).

though I have to admit even Ryanair must be preferable to P&O Ferries and their horrid floating dustbins - at least on Ryanair the horror only lasts at most a couple of hours on a short flight - on P&O Bedbugs you have to endure it for 15 hours. I thought that P&O was decent? Damn I tho...

Nice report Bob! I loved reading it, loved your pics also. Nice to see a report from US. To bad they are suspending their flights after this summer, I would have loved to visit Philadelphia once, but that will have to wait or I'll have to go through IAD. Strange that they will suspend their flights....

Wow. Just wow. That's a great report + awesome pictures ! I know it's more about the photographer's skills but could you share with us what camera / lens you are using? Empty streets in Vegas? They looked pretty crowded to me for the week I was there (especially at night). Then again, this was our ...

Thanks, I'll try to get the last part online this night.

And then the problems started... Flight: UA777 From: IAD To: LAS Plane: A320 Registration: N407UA (Need to check this) changed to other plane. Seat: 07C (Economy Plus) Load: Y: 100% When boarding was supposed to start nothing happened. A lot of people were standing at the gate but nothing seemed to ...

Somewhere in april I booked myself a little trip to Las Vegas with United Airlines through Connections. Flight: UA951 From: BRU To: IAD Plane: B777-222 Registration: N775UA Time departure (scheduled): 12h00 (CET) Time departure (actual): 12h07 (CET) Time take off: 12h11 (CET) Time arrival (scheduled...
