- planes: the lease will end within about one year. I guess that SN will look for a replacement? Why not 4 A332's? I hope this will happen but i think not. Money is the problem. But indeed this would be nice, plus an A332 can do longer ranges than the A333. Greetingzz Sonny :wink: Vliegtuigfreak, I...

I guess both VEX and SNBA have to find an agreement quite fast : SNBA's european network doesn't look profitable to me and VEX seems to lose a lot of money in the fares battle they're having against each other.

That sounds like a possible move from FR but not from a serious company like SN. ciao, TriStar :) Indeed, I think they just cancelled them because they had not enough pax. Don't forget that it is January, a very ...

Many People are in the clouds about airbus the A380 in addition to the A330/340, but I can't get over the DISRESPECT airbus is showing towards its own History. First prototype ever broken-up in 1974 and the second ever A300B1 broken-up at EBBR in 2003. It is a real SHAME. Contrarily Boeing is setti...
