Re: Strikes affecting Belgian airports in 2018

Why aren't authorities throughout Europe fining Ryanair for illegal practices? Why do they allow them to fly in the first place?

Re: Day trips

What is the best way to book tickets for these day trips? Do you go straight to the airlines' websites, or to a travel agent's website?

Day trips

Excuse me for being a total noob, but how on earth do you go about making day trips for fun by plane? I wouldn't mind giving it a shot, if only I know how to do it and which destinations are most attractive (i.e. allow most time in situ) when traveling from BRU, so go on and share your experiences t...

Re: The CityJet Sukhoi SSJ100-95 saga is hurting Brussels Airlines

It says here that Cityjet's Sukhois are used to fly to Billund. I flew Brussels Airlines to Billund last year and that was a FlyBe aircraft. Has Brussels Airlines stopped using FlyBe?

You can Always try to get a cheap second-hand telezoomlens. Shop around on the internet for a reliable camera store selling second hand lenses, but avoid Ebay.
