This forum needs to be stimulated

The forum is an important feature of this website. However, in my opinion, it is under-used. Many visitors simply ignore it because it is not sufficiently visible in the menu. :( A way to address this would be to have an additional link to the forum directly at the top of the pages (rather than only...

Frederic, I don't agree with you. Going from B737 to A320 is a real promotion. Bigger plane (in general), but most important wider seats: especially the abhorred middle seat which is wider in the A320 than in the B737. Very important when the plane is fully booked. Another suggestion to Bart: most l...

Yesterday indeed, in La Libre belgique, Pierre Sparaco (an aviation consultant) wrote that most Concorde flights were running at an average load of less than 50%, which makes them non-profitable (even if BA claims that they are profitable).
