Only 93% of its scheduled flights operated today....
100 of its 1,400 daily flights cancelled.

A rumour says that NW will stop its BRU-DTW route by August 13, due to big (financial and social) troubles in the USA.

Anyone more news on this?

Rumours are now confirmed:

Although BRU was doing well commercially (they say), NW will suspend all flights out of BRU. Reason: cockpit crew shortage and high sickness rates.
Last flight will be on 13/08.

So far the good intentions of NW.
