Does anyone know what is SFB doing in Manchester?

BTW, SFG is apparently AOG at Yaoundé.

Airlines and any company really will charge top dollar for a mediocre service as long as there are ignorant paying consumers.
Ryanair has started doing just the same, they have become an extremely expensive airline.

They also pay their staff very little for their time and work.
No wonder nobody wants to work for airlines anymore, but they'll still take advantage of the few that want to work for an airline at any cost.

Bordeaux is indeed seasonal, and strangely, no flights are available for next year although other destinations are bookable

BLL is also seasonal. I don't see any flights for the winter season. Wasn't the point of the leased aircraft so they could do thin routes as well? And not just in the summer season...or are there some other route plans in the works, not just for those aircraft....

Thx ! It will be Ryanair or CDG. I'll not go to FRA /ZRH to connect for going to BOD...

Could be somewhere on an aviation24.be article...

Anyway, why CDG? LIL has many connections with BOD.

Because TGV goes @ CDG and connection is easy ! ZYR LIlle...yes and ? Transfer to Lesquin...a show ! And...Volotea 4 flights a week !!!! AF has a flight every 3 hours ! Easy...or directly with FR to BOD.

Without wanting to add more than is necessary, what is the point of large-scale advertising for SN'flights to New York ( abribus in Brussels ) if the flight to New York is canceled every day...? Curious !

Indeed, today's flight to New York has been cancelled. I just checked flightradar24 ( https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/sn501 ) and during the last three months, the flight was cancelled three times. 3 out of 91 flights, or 3% of flights.

Although today's cancellation may be annoying for passengers and crew, it does not mean that SN will cancel this flight every day (and no, I don't work at SN)

[convair]

Indeed, not a glorious day for SN:

Only 5 l/h flights today!

SFH just left to MAN (for maintenance?)
SFB still in MAN (for maintenance?)
SFF AOG at Yaounde;
SFJ having a day off at BRU.

There is only JFK wich is cancelled because of AOG in NSI, there were no other flight planned as the season of the maintenance and check has started. It's nothing abdnormal here.

Same goes for TUI as well I think since not only quite a few OO-'s are regularly to be seen at remote stands, also Dutch, German and English 737's do come in more often for maintenance last day (at least that's my feeling)

Rejected take-off for A319 OO-SSL at Ljubjana

A Brussels Airlines Airbus A319-100, registration OO-SSL performing flight SN3344 from Ljubljana (Slovenia) to Brussels (Belgium), was accelerating for takeoff from Ljubljana's runway 30 when the crew rejected takeoff at low speed (about 60 knots over ground) due to a problem with one of the computers on board.

That's true.I'm sad. I recognize the exaggeration but how many flights to Washington have been canceled? One in 2 in September and today Kinshasa Luanda. How many Douala? Dakar? I hope they don't open Nairobi as there are so many holes in the racket...Why do you think I gave up my status and my miles on SN? In Brussels South Station I' m suprised at the number of passengers who go to FIH via CDG. It's not serious, it's simple! Sadness ! Sadness ! Sadness !
