Not during the whole summer season, in early May, we can find an A321neo LR flight (via their booking sys).

3 brands all right, but isn't Air Transat part of Air Canada too now?
In that case, it's pretty much irrelevant who you'd fly with as these flights all fall unter the A++ joint venture, sharing all costs and revenues as if they were one single airlines?
or is Air Transat's purchase not completed yet?
Any updates on that?

Re: BRU Summer 2020: news, new routes, airlines
I'm not really into this, but i think it matters who you are flying with. Air Transat is a lowcost airline, so you will pay less if you fly them, but the flight will also be les comfortable in comparison with Air Canada, whom will cost more to fly.Inquirer wrote: ↑24 Feb 2020, 11:21 3 brands all right, but isn't Air Transat part of Air Canada too now?

Transavia to postpone its 2020 launch to 2021, due to COVID-19 outbreak.
if anyone's wondering, Transavia France route from Montpellier and Brussels is maintained, with the first flight on 5 April 2020.

Re: BRU Summer 2020: news, new routes, airlines
I checked about 30 minutes ago and these flights were still bookable from 5 April, we will see if this postpone will happen, which seems to be probable.rwandan-flyer wrote: ↑18 Mar 2020, 22:02Not yet canceled, but postponed.

Re: BRU Summer 2020: news, new routes, airlines
You're not correct about this: https://www.tijd.be/dossiers/coronaviru ... 909#729288
According to De Tijd:
During the week, cargo flights doos not have restrictions for night flights at BRU
And also, Brussels is not giving fines at the moment for the noise restriction.
