But to Shenzhen you need a visa to Hong Kong not.
Yes, indeed.
A single entry five days visa on arrival is available at the border in Shenzhen. The validity shall not be extendable.

Re: BRU Summer 2020: news, new routes, airlines

Emirates wants to start flying with their A380 to BRU if the new triple bridge is working fine. If not, a third daily flight is under consideration. But everything depends on the bilateral agreements. as they come with T7 at the moment they can only test 2 bridges. They seem to be working just fine...

SN has rather a white livery on the top of the fuselage and a light blue livery on the bottom.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019

Whatever the name or the livery projects, SN/EW is still the home carrier employing locals here and abroad, and transporting passengers to and via BRU. So personnally, no reason to avoid SN.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019

Like some people say here, that from now on they will only fly with AF, KLM, BA etc, I think is simply ridiculous. If you still want to be a little patriotic. Then support at least the people who work here in Belgium. Otherwise have fun on your 1-stop hopping trough Europe... :roll: Greetings Chris...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal

Dear mates, OK you got it : LH did not kill SN... I did not use the right words, driven by emotion. But the facts are : LH erases SN belgian identity and does not invest in the belgian carrier devlpt. Thus, the future of BRU as a hub does not look good! Dear member, For sure LH can't forbid BRU and...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal

Not at all... they have killed the belgian flag carrier ! At the contrary (and for the zillionth time): Lufthansa has saved Brussels Airlines ten years ago, when the Belgians didn't want to invest in their flag airline / national carrier / whatever you want to call it. Without the support from Luft...

One assumption, already read on this forum, could be visibility : most of their A330 are flying and are on the airfields essentially at night, at the opposite of the A319/A320 family.
