Re: Air Belgium in 2020
The quarantine is a self-isolation in a designated hotel room for 14 days. Source: https://www.tourismupdate.co.za/article/mauritius-closed-december A 14-day quarantaine in a hotel in Mauritius isn't really a punishment I think... :lol: As long as one is allowed to leave the room and use the hotel ...

Re: TUI fly Belgium in 2020
OO-JDL flew Stuttgart-Detroit-Brussels
Was this also a special charter?
I notice TUI flies regularly to Pristina and Tirana.
Are those flights holiday charters? Quite strange to see those destinations in autumn/winter...
Can anyone explain the market for those fligths?

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
Last Sunday, I flew on SN 3802 From Faro to Brussels on OO-SNJ. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly crew. Also the enthousiasm of the captain, and the information he gave about the routing was nice. He even came online to give extra information about the views of the Belgian cities in the fin...

Re: Impact of the coronavirus crisis on aviation
The above charge is not in line with the policy that Brussels Airlines announces for rebookings: You are right when it comes to rebooking... there are no extra charges, and only the difference in fares has to be paid... However, it seems to be that fares are different when you are rebooking or when...

Wow, how not to do customer service ... :roll: Well, to be honest, I'm really disappointed. My wife and daughter booked tickets on Tui for the same period (I didn't, because I'm a Miles and More member and wanted to be a loyal custormer..), and this morning already they got ta mail that the flight ...

Re: Impact of the coronavirus crisis on aviation
Brussels Airlines doesn't fully refund booked tickets to Spain, not even Flex tickets. I havea Flex ticket Brussels-Malaga r/t from September 8 till September 12. When I don't fly, it is considered a voluntary annulation, and it will still cost me € 140,00, because technically the fligth is still op...

Re: Impact of the coronavirus crisis on aviation
Only police is making those checks, but they are not always present everywhere, hence you could sometimes go to your plane without any check of your reasons for travelling. The gate agents will not stop you, and they are not allowed to do it. But if you travel to a red zone without any valid reason...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
The flights resumed. For Kigali, I have just saw that the SN A330 makes a day stop at KGL.It is quite unusual, SN operates flights to Kigali in the evening (arrival around 7:00 p.m. and departure at 8:20 p.m.) The plane arrives at 12:50 a.m. and departs the same day at 9:10 p.m. The crews sleep log...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
Swiss and Austrian are reconfiguring B777's into temporary freighters by removing part of the passenger seats, to operate cargo flights. I guess this is a rather easy modification that can generate extra revenue as the aircraft are still costing money, even when they are stored at an airport, becaus...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
It looks like more and more airlines are operating cargo only flights with passenger planes (KLM, Swiss, Emirates), some even after removing the seats (Air Canada). Would this be an option for Brussels Airlines? I always heard that demand for cargo on the African routes was high. Could these operati...

Re: Update SN A330 fleet
Why did SFU go first?
It was the youngest of the 3 remaining A330-200's.
But I guess it had the highest number of flight hours and cycles?

KJK 26/03/2020 KLM 747?
This morning FR24 showed KLM 747 PH-BFC landing in KJK at 8:15 am local, and departing about an hour later.
Is this correct?
Any info about this?
I didn't know that a 747 could take off from KJK.
Any pictures of the aircraft on the ground?

Duke
