Indeed, two destinations, but in October they will have two flights a day (instead of one) to Geneva and one to Berlin, which makes already three a day.

On luchtvaartnieuws they state that EasyJet is interested to develop activities at BRU Airport further.

With Vueling, EasyJet, Sky Europe, Sterling, ... Brussels becomes an important LCC airport.

Let's hope Air Berlin will also come ... :D

Regards,
Danny

You get excited very quickly do you get a heart attack every time a new airline announces that it comes to Brussels?

No they didn't, and I'm not surprised.

BRU was never mentioned on Iran Air website...

Wouldn't it be better to separate cargo and passenger news in 2 different topics? Just a suggestion!

The "fourth" flight was an existing flight. Its just an extention of the timetable 06.08 - 28.08 on the Dallas route. They just continue on 03.09

So, not an extra flight in my opinion.

You're talking about SQ7975 operated now on day 1, in September the schedules changes slightly as this flight will take off 2h30 earlier. This means it will leave on a Sunday but will still arrive on a Monday, as it is right now. I was talking about the extra SQ7969 leaving on Monday, arriving on Tuesday.

And when exactly might they come? Does anyone have any news - I'm getting a little impatient! It feels as if we've been talking about "Air Berlin coming to Brussels soon" for far too long...
