Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019

It's a shame that SN isn't adding any new destinations out of BRU (only Kiev that started this winter season).
No other short or long haul destinations...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2018

Tap water is very drinkable in Belgium and it’s better for the environment.
I think it’s better What they have now, compared to bottled water.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2018

So for next summer season, SN isn't adding any new destinations, except for Kiev en Wroclaw that start this winter. There are some extra frequencies on African destinations (Monrovia, Freetown (both probably because KLM is leaving these destinations), Accra, Lomé) and some European routes. Shame the...

Re: 25-31/10/2018 Aviapartner strike at Brussels Airport

What I don't get is why they cancel the flights... why don't they just say: hand luggage only?
maybe it's because I don't know that awful lot about aviation ;)
or I just want my flight tomorrow at 7am to fly...

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

Everyone is talking about parkings, but if your flight leaves very early, you can barely reach it by public transport. I think this is THE factor that they need to promote, no new parkings, but easier, cheaper (diabolo has to be abolished) and faster public transport! Why would you take a train, if ...

Re: Ryanair cabin crew strike 25 and 26 July 2018 - cockpit strike 10 August

All you care about is passenger rights. Good. Fantastic. We all got the point too. Passenger have rights, yes. But you can’t blame the employees for not respecting their rights. You just can’t. And as already said many times by others, these passengers paying peanuts to fly with Ryanair perfectly k...

Re: Air Belgium in 2018

Talked to a Air Belgium crew member the other day.
I asked about the load factor.
He said: it depends on the day really. Sometimes we are fully booked, but on other days only half or less of the seats are occupied.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2018

VRT interviewed the new CEO of SN
Main points:
- not planning to take away planes from BRU, but adding more instead
- No decision about name change this year
- Will stay a Belgian brand (she adds: employees are belgian, so it’s belgian anyway... hope that’s not the only belgian touch...)

Re: Brussels Airport monthly traffic figures

With 5.2 million passenders in First quarter, BRU sets a new record.

Painful Mistake though: in the Dutch version they say this record is Thanks to Many airlines, for instance “Qeshm airlines to Tel Aviv...”

Dont see that iranian company Flying to Israel for sure :p
