It is usual fro French courts, governments and companies to favour their nationals. This case is no exception.

Hi Ian,

Welcome to Luchtzak!

I flew with JAL from FRA to TYO Narita, and back from TYO Narita to MOW Sheremetyevo, both in a B747. That was some 15 years ago, and service was superb. I have no recent experience.

Best wishes for your father.

JDarby,

We know :( Unfortunately :( The demise of Sabena meant the end of BRU as a burstling airport. Nevertheless, congratulations to BIAC for having kept the plans to open Terminal A after the Sabena bankruptcy and trying to put BRU again on the map of world airmines.
