Yes , the A330 will have a complete new interior.
What about the 3 remaining A330's (SFY-SFZ?) ?
Will they also get the new interior?

Regards,

SFZ-T-X will remain in the fleet (until at least 2021-‘22-´23 respectively).

SFX is going to change to the new lay out, so that all -300´s have exactly the same configuration. I am not sure what’s going to happen to the -200’s.

Due to no Cityjet a/c available to operate the flight to BMA.

I think the intention is to get rid of them when their leasing contract will ends, to be replaced with 330-300

So brussels airlines well have an harmonised long haul fleet with the same type of A/C and same type of motors

Why are the pilots still hijacking passengers and delaying flights with 15 minutes, without reason ?

Reasons are numerous, you can try to Google for news items, impact on arrival time should be at a minimum.

it's not without a reason . . . it's their only way to make their concerns clear to the management as they think nothing is going on by pushing them further and only think about profits ISO wellbeing of the staff

What a stupid moment.

You think they do it for fun? For your information the sign in time didn't change, by delaying the fight by 15 minutes, the pilot have to work 15 minute more, and unpaid as it is on the ground.

In other airlines, the pilot would strike and cancelled all the flights, by doing this type of strike, the pilot try not to heart the pax to much and you should be thankful for that!

Since Charles Michel is in Russia, meeting Putin, maybe he can ask about the codesharing for SN with other airlines flying over Russia :)

Please do explain why this is 'simply unacceptable'? You don't believe in the rights of employees to stand up for their rights? Or you'd rather they went on strike?

These pilots are truly immoral.

From today the pilots will ask full runway length at Brussels Airport, will taxi more slowly towards gate/runway and will take additional fuel in order to land with at least 5 tonnes of kerosene at Brussels Airport.

Their actions didn't need to be so harmful to the environment. They're totally unnecessarily blasting CO2 in the air only for their own selfish interests.

The pilots of Sabena also thought they were just standing up for their rights, look what has come of it, not only harming themselves but the entire Belgian economy and many employees who didn't earn close to half of what those pilots got. With pilots with a mentality like this Brussels Airlines will end up the same.

They do this type of action so that the passenger are not taken in hostage, you would prefer that they do a full strike like in other airlines?

And another question, you would prefer the enterprises being able to do whatever they want with the social right of their employee in name of the national economy? There are limit and when you reach them, it's legit to take some actions.

Hurting the environment for no good reason other than making their point honestly seems like the most immoral option to me. It shows these pilots have no integrity at all.

Sure, many 'sossen' think like that. Meanwhile Belgium is trailing behind their Northwest-European counterparts with a massive state debt. If you don't like your job, there's always the option to find work somewhere else. Don't pretend pilots in Belgium have a tough live, they're still the best payed drivers of the country. The sad thing is in Belgium they continue to blatantly abuse their position for selfish reasons even after the lessons Sabena should have learned them. Just look at KL i.e., when is the last time their pilots went on strike? And that doesn't mean they're exploited. Sadly Belgium is way too much French and way too little Dutch in these aspects. In that way the national airline does live up to their name of 'Brussels' Airlines.

Again, as we can read from multiple and various comments from SN employees here, I thought everything was roses and sunshine at SN? At least, when you're going to be pestering the general public, we should know the reasons why? Which limits have been reached then that action is required?
