Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future
An article published in April 2023, but it seems that no one put it on this forum BRU eyes links to Singapour (it will be the case in few months), Manilla, Hong Kong (i guess a return of Cathay Pacific), Delhi, Bangkok (same thing that HKG), Seoul, Taipei, San Fransisco, Boston and Sao Paulo. Return...

Re: RwandAir & Rwandan Aviation News 2023
I made a mistake it's not 6 th B737-800, but the 5 B737-800 pax plus one B737-800F. Thus 6 B737NG (1 700 and 5 800) + 1 B737-800F

Re: Air Transport in Africa Outlook
Akasa Air (India) plans to add flights to East Africa. Without no suprise, i guess that Nairob (BOM NBO O&D 96 823 pax in 2019) i is on the top of the list. However probably there is a strong marked from Entebbe and Dar Es Salaam. I don't think that Kigali could be on the list. Market is probabl...

Don't be afraid by ITA in Africa. They won't never have a huge network like SN or AF. They just resume some olders Alitalia routes : Accra and Dakar. ACC was before the closure served by Meridiania. DSSis a huge market for Italy with Neos that currently serves DSS. We will won't see a Rome Conakry o...

Few days ago, Rockets hit Tel Aviv Airport and we have seen people lied on the ground in the terminal and on the apron. Just for information... That is not true. Ballistic rockets are tracked by the iron dome radar system, if they are targetting the airport the local alarm will sound while at the s...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Contrary to what we think, Brussels Airlines doesn't take advantage and won't probably take advantages of Air France troubles in West Africa. To Ouagadougou the airline doesn't take trafic from Air France. Worst, the airline is loosing trafic to OUA (-7% since the troubles started in August) and the...

Re: RwandAir & Rwandan Aviation News 2023
I would say 50 / 50. Both have premium eco. I know SkyTraxx has not good reputation among Avgeeks (but not outside Avgeeks community), but both airlines are 3 stars SkyTrax and RwandAir is ranked 90th and Brussels Airlines 100th, in the 2023 SkyTrax Ranking. https://www.worldairlineawards.com/worlds...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
And last but not least look at the destinations SN is flying : to what extend technical problems are not caused by the reality that in sub Saharan Africa you might not have the local skills, spare parts available and generally the infrastructure for state of the art aircraft?

Re: D R Congo creates an airline with Air France-KLM: Congo Airways
Unfortunately, Congo is not alone in this case. And the Western carriers are probably less impacted than Africans carriers.
