Yes they still fly the B747, e.g. on the Sydney-Dallas and Brisbane-LA route. All London-Sydney and London- Melbourne routes are operated by A380 aircraft. QF is however retiring all B747s that do not have the A380 cabin configuration. A330 aircraft are taking over several routes previously flown by...

I thought this was one was equally good, for all those fans of The Golden Girls and Love Boat.

@crew1990 You should take into account that many people fly to LHR ex-BRU to transfer to other flights. Eurostar is not an option there, I'm afraid. I'm pretty sure people at British Airways think the same. I regularly transfer at LHR, please do not replace those flights with trains!

VRT news desk - the Flemish state-television which is surely not an anti-union lobby (actually, the VRT newsdesk joins every national strike the unions organize).

Dear passenger, get your facts right. Your statement is not correct.

You should always allow enough time to transfer at any US airport. Delays at border control, even in Chicago, can be quite long for non-US citizens. If your flight from BRU is delayed, United staff will be present at the gate in Terminal 5 with a boarding pass for your onward flight in a bright yell...

I just drove back from Brussels to Mechelen and the conditions were horrendous. Massive downpours in Brussels, and dangerous driving conditions. So I assume it is because of the weather.

Qantas introduced these machines a few years ago, at its main domestic airport terminals. They work pretty smoothly.

London Heathrow is cutting the number of flights this Sunday by 20%.

Qantas will also be using the new terminal when it switches its hub from Singapore to Dubai in March.

Off-topic Just look at the hero's welcome of the Ford unions in Genk, upon return from Detroit, where they got confirmation none of the rumours they had first spread themselves were justified.... I think you will find that these rumours were first reported in the Wall Street Journal, a source that s...

Not good news to get in bed with your best enemy if you ask me. I don't think they had much choice. Qantas is losing hundreds of millions of Australian dollars on its international network, and the competition from Asia and the Middle East is massive. But I am curious to see whether this move will ...

Dear dna,

in order to investigate the issue, I would need your pnr and FF number. Can you give it to me?

thanks

I've sent you a mail with those details. Thanks for sorting this out Kim.

Why is it I always get an error message whenever I try to add my frequent flyer number to an existing booking on the Brussels Airlines website? It was impossible to do this a few weeks ago, and it still hasn't been fixed. I'm trying to add the number for another flight next week, but when I fill in ...
