in fact that's the OLD livery you show us, Binter recently modified their livery...

Is Binter still a regional subsidiary of IB (hence their name: IB inter), or what's the current share holder's structure?

Does Binter Baleares still exist too?

Connections on Pulkovo Aviation??? Now, I don't want to judge this Russian airline, but would it be wise for a full service airline like SN to offer connections on an airline like that? What I have never understood is why SN does not code share with AY on its routes to the Far East? I mean, any rout...

Why don't yuo donate them to UNICEF?

SN has a very laudable system where passengers can donate their privilege point to this highly respected UN organisation which will then use them to 'buy' tickets and cargo space on SN's panes to Africa.

Those A330s brake down not more than any other plane SN operates, but with only 3 of them flying in a very tight schedule (only 3 to 4 hrs at the base per 24 hrs), any minor techincal problem leads to a big mess in operations as there isn't a replacement plane available in case of serious delay like...

As you say yourself, C-class is pritty much finished in Europe anyhow within the next decade as more and more businesses change towards a policy of having their staff travel in Y-class only for flights up to 4 hrs or so, but I know the management of SN is still insisting on increasing their C-class ...

Good to see SN flirt with the 60% mark during the weakest month of the year, that gives a very promissing outlook for the rest of the year.
Maybe SN will finally have normal industry-wide loadfactors for their European flights this year.

Two things to retain from the article in LaLibre: If an agreement is made, the route will be announced shortly before the state visit of the King of the Belgians to China, so somewhere in June then? It will be a codeshare with SN Brussels Airlines. Forget that African quote in the article, that's ju...

It's about the same spot, Comet, but until now it hadn't been aired on national TV yet...only at the airport, during events, in cinema's, etc. etc.

As from tonight, February 28, 2005, the "It's a boy" spot of SN Brussels Airlines will be broadcasted on the major Belgian commercial television stations. The television campaign will run every day from the 28th of February until the 20th of March with about 5 spots per day in peak hours (...

well it does make a lot of sense, doesn't it? -) SN pulls a plane off this route for use on other more profitable routes (e.g. charters during the summer months). -) The daily capacity on the BRU-BCN route is reduced, so the loadfactor and thus ultimately also the average ticket price can go up agai...

In order to optimize our capacity in Europe, SN Brussels Airlines is planning a few alterations to its network. A first step in this direction has been taken by reviewing the operations to and from Barcelona. As from the summer season (starting on 27th March), SN Brussels Airlines will continue to o...

If you look closely you'll see ALL flights in that timetable have the DISC 2X/3 mark.

It simply indicates the HOURS printed in this timetable are no longer valid beyond the date mentioned, since we go back to daylight saving time on the 27th of March.

I wonder what will happen to TAP code share flights SN has out of BRU? Destinations which spring to mind are: GOT, THF, BHX, HAM, PRG, SXB. Will TAP give them up because all of the destinations are served by LH too and are included in the agreement between LH and TAP? We all know how dearly LH would...

What FR does on their PIK-CRL route is quite frankly almost irrelevant for the SN's GLA-BRU route. SN is aiming at 2 kinds of passengers: -) high yield O/D pax, going on daytrips from the Glasgow area to downtown Brussels for business meetings, the EU institutions etc. NO way these pax will want to ...

You may argue that SN Brussels Airlines is indeed just plain old Sabena in disguise, but I know of quite a lot of members on this forum who will take a shot at you for that, so yes, for SN Brussels Airlines (which is now the official holder of the ex-Sabena IATA abreviation) GLASGOW is a brandnew de...

Well, one of the new European destinations for next summer already leaked out on the web anyway, so it isn't a secret to give it here once more: As from the end of March, SN is going to open a brandnew service to GLASGOW, operated with BAe146. These SN operated flights will also bear a BA flight num...

And just how long will it take before SN will start codesharing on the routes???? februari, march? 8)

Well, Sentike, I don't know, but I sure would not have taken the risk to rebook on WizzAir. After all, your bill is growing ever steadily and still you are stuck with a very unreliable ticket on a LCC. At risk of being called a PR man of SN too, I just want to point out SN is offering tickets to vic...

So will this mean we will once again see somebody launch an intercontintal airline (without any feeder lines) from a relatively modest airport like BRU???? And what will be the name? Still working with the Brussels United Airways name (sounds line a soccer team) ? Or will it be AfricExel? Although I...

You just don't have a clue, have you? This is exactly why no pilot ever bothers to post on this forum anymore: i.e. some people commenting and even arguing strongly with them without knowing any of the facts. The new holiday system is officially and unilaterally introduced by the management, dumbhea...
