Re: Replacement of SN's Avro RJ and B737 fleet
Hi Regi, a direct flight LUX-BRU would make a lot of sense .. When we need to go to Brussels (which I often need to do), we either drive (if your meeting is at 09.00 in Brussels, this means we can leave here around 05.30 AM, so avoid all traffic jams) or the train, which takes more than 3 hours as w...

Re: Replacement of SN's Avro RJ and B737 fleet
Dear NCB, I can only confirm what Korongo explains about how corporate booking works: I work for an international financial institutions, and fly about every week, leaving from Lux to entire Europe and CIS countries. I do about some 30-50 round trips a year, so I may call myself a little bit of an &...

Re: OO-TUC/OO-JAP
no, but then just make it a full charter plane, don't call it anything like "comfort class". I found their whole conmfort class thing the best commercial spin of the decade .. but I agree with you, you get what you pay for

Re: When will OO-TUC be back in Belgium ?
I flew TUC back yesterday from Cancun, I would not have been surprised it was its first long-haul. Indeed, dull colours outside, and the aisles have no carpet any longer. Good points is the seat pitch in Comfort Class, quite generous, and better than in Comfort Class of the other (grey) B767 we took...

Dear all, I am about to book a reward flight with Miles and More and Brussels Airlines, being Brussels-Sevilla in Business Class.

Dear all,
I booked a return ticket with Thomas Cook Airlines to Cancun in their "Comfort Class", B767. Does anyone have an idea what the service is all about? Are the seats any different than in economy? What is the inflight service all about, food, IFE, any lounge access at BRU ...?

Re: Will EK (Emirates) come to BRU?
Anyone who is indifferent about the quality of EK in Y long-haul should try the likes of LH or IB in Y class long-haul, and then afterwards tell which he/she enjoyed most. I did EK FRA-DXB-SIN this year in Y, and had a better flight experience than C long-haul on TK this year. Catering, IFE, seat co...

Re: The future of Brussels Airlines with Lufthansa
I don't know why you guys are all so fond of the Airbus 300-600 from Lufthansa. I flew them last year in C-class Frankfurt-Almaty (for a little EUR 5,550), and it was a hell of a flight: very uncomfortable seats, extremely hot in the cabin (I asked to one of the crew, seems it is an old type of airc...

Re: They say: Charleroi is the most depressing city in Europe
Married to a Spanish, I need to pick my in-laws up at CRL very frequently. Once they asked me to visit Charleroi, which I did. They were shocked, and so was I, being Belgian myself. When we went to Maastricht once they wanted to see Liege, same thing, and at night even more frightening in the city c...

Re: is Privilege still alive ?!?
Same thing here. I have the Amex Gold, which gives me 1.5 mile for each EUR spent. Since many months, none of my miles have been credited. Sometimes, there is a credit which I cannot reconcile with my Amex statements. Even the Amex customer service staff (take an example to them, SN people), told me...
