Oops ! corrected ! Chennai (MAA) is a little bit further.

Obviously, this is a long term opportunity that both BRU and CRL grow parallel. Each airport in its own segment ! But bringing the binder in a strategic geographic area, still having a huge potential with Brussels as core ! ANR has its own business card to play to the UK or Germany. LGG has its nich...

So there is a leasing market yet for the 787-8.

A "future dream" is asking "if" there are plans in the pipeline. For LH group to activate 787 or A350 orders and "when". Are the 787 and A350 so similar ? A dream isn't reality as the future can become. Obviously a long term question so not in this decade. Any indicatio...

Good afternoon, So, the 787 or 350 have no chance to enter SN fleet until the next decade even under the LH Group management. As they are far too expensive today. (JAF (TUI) will perform it (788) in another airline and group strategy, indeed, but carries it). Interesting are the fuel burn figures on...

I'm not ;-) It was the answer you gave as to "why" the A350 would be the replacement for SN's A330s ;-) :? Not completely (I'm quoting airbus website) and it makes part of a wide open question ;) . In terms of fleet harmonization. But the 787-8, 787-9 could be another option. The A350-800...

To be fair, I don't think the ultimate decision on which planes go to SN, rests with SN. It's all in LH hands. But the question remains open "A350: a dream to concretise for SN" ? But better to extend the topic to : "A350 or 787 Dreamliner : a future dream to concretise for SN ?"...

Solely buying it for the purpose of "fleet harmonization" would be rather short sighted. You don't buy a plane because it fits in your fleet (sort off) Just an element, of course not ;) . But SN is flying all Airbus fleet on busy european routes, middle haul, long haul. F.i, flight simula...

And why would that be? Example: the range of the A350 exceeds far what Brussels Airlines needs. In terms of fleet harmonization. But the 787-8, 787-9 could be another option. The A350-800 will seat 270 passengers in a 3-class with a 9-abreast layout. It will have a range of 15,400 km (8,300 nmi). I...

A350 is probably the long haul plane that suits for SN. But in (how) many years ? If LH pushed it ahead in the long term for its "potential pearl of the group". Is it daydreaming, complete utopia ? Any wishes at SN to use this Airbus one day ? Knowing that JAF has chosen the 787 Dreamliner...

Very nice and classy bird !

Hello. I have read and understood by reading Luchtzak's posts that 9W (24% controled by EY) is moving its hub from BRU to AMS looking for a new strategy. My question is : can a light version of 9W flights remain at BRU ? As they have become a regular player since 2007 on the BRU-India market, a know...

What would cheap travelling Africans contribute to our society? In this case I would rather have one airline transporting pax in a very controlled environment than a free market where the only concerns is the ticket price. Simplicism ! A part of the african people working and contributing the whole...

The current fleet of eight A330-200/300 (including due to be delivered ex Swiss HB-IQR) is 17 years old but has still an added value for the refurbishment of the cabins.

Reuters Market Eye - Shares in Jet Airways India(JET.NS) gain 1.3 percent, heading for a fourth day of gains, on market talk of a potential sale of parking slots in Brussels to Etihad Airways, dealers say. Last month Abu Dhabi's Etihad Airways paid $70 million to buy Jet Airways' (JET.NS) slots at L...

easyJet is a potential treath for Luxair on regular flights, isn't ?

What has DL to do with AA/US? The only thing that kept them in BRU after they lost the SN-partnership, were the corporate contracts. They started to loose these by stopping ORD and they lost even more when SN was offering some very competitive contracts to these companies. DL is also strong at BRU ...

The behavior of SN is lately indeed weird. Even their name or slogan like connection the world with Brussels is more and more vage. They are cancelling all European capitals: Athens, Helsinki, Warsaw,.... and what will follow. Yes, why ? Athens is a city of 10 million people. The whole Greece has a...
