Re: Air Belgium in 2018

Second comment : their prices are just normal, 25 euro per flying hour is very normal. So why fly CRL then... 440 euro for MUC(or DUS)-LAS is a nice price BRU-LHR-HKG for 479 euro is not even hard to find Indeed, one must be honest: basic ticket price is quiet high imo, given they profile themselve...

Re: TUI fly Belgium in 2018

737-8 according to the website https://www.tuifly.be/fr/notre-flotte , named Infinity 737-800, probably an hand me down from one of the other TUI Branches. If no plane leaves the fleet it means that TUI is quite expanding this year. 2x 737-800 4x 737-8MAX 1x 787-8 +3 A320 leased ! + another 2 A320 ...

Re: Air Belgium in 2018

Nice video.
Does this mean TUI / Tec4Jets does also the maintenance for Air Belgium?
Or only stickering and initial cabin conversion?

Re: TUI fly Belgium in 2018

TUI fly Belgium would lease on top of the 3 A320 (mentioned on this website earlier) also 2 A320, 1 B737 and an unspecified aircraft this summerseason?
Source
If the info is correct would be 35 aircraft this summer + any extra 737MAX8 or B787 arriving maybe?

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2018

Finally, my bet on belgianwings !!! Wouldn't that go against the vision of 'integration into EW'? Germanwings as a name also dissapeared in favor of Eurowings. Germanwings actually still exists and wet-lease aircraft for EW, but as "Eurowings operated by Germanwings" I'm afraid the Belgia...

I am pretty sure that brussels airlines will be rebranded, don’t you?! In due time...I think so yes, but not yet. Why else replace management? To change nothing?

LH is not stupid, if SN would be really profitable they wouldn’t change the strategy. Sad but unfortunately true. Most years of their existence they did lose (a lot of) money despite the financial aid of LH... Whenever there was a profit it was rather marginal in comparison to the losses. source In...

I’m quite surprised that so many people seem shocked now… I actually was last year…when the take-over took place and the plans were laid out…They just did what they already announced: “ SN will be integrated in low-cost EW ”. No news there. Some people speak of SN as a “ national carrier ” dissapear...
