Likely to be the Air Nostrum ones: Air Nostrum (Spain) is now merged with CityJet (Ireland).

I understood that the new long haul fleet would be owned by Brussels Airlines but if you look to Air fleets there is only one A330 that is not leased?

Will SFB now remain in duty for SN or is it a temporary replacement because of the unavailability of other SN aircraft?

Temporary. SFB stays in DUS until the replacement arrives there. (I believe OO-SFK, not sure)

Wonder if the pitch stayed the same in regular eco or not, that's not stated anywhere.

The pitch is 31". It is similar to what it is now (31-33"). I tried the seat it I was comfortable. The width is 18" (more than in most Dreamliners: 17").

Business class seems the same as the business class in LX (B777).

I just was on one of their flights in business to SIN and I recognize many of the details

Will check when taking a SN flight to Washington in May if it has the new interior of course :D

Not a surprise: standardisation within the LH Group.

Usually, Bangor, Maine, is an intermediate stop before a final flight to a dismantling/scraping/storage site. This one will be Crestview in Florida.

wasn't Airbus going to put one in the museum in Toulouse or at least do some research on the frame?
