Network expansion in 2010 will add further African destinations, placing Brussels Airlines as the key player connecting Africa to the world.
So I hope they will tell us something tonight about this.
I'd expect so.

After all, "accidentally" today is also the day they would communicate on our 5th A330 which they've promissed us in fall.....

Or are we going to hear something about the Congo project in public for the first time... 8-)

BTW, interestingly enough, SN apparently flies Avro RJ 80s according to the STAR site :lol:

Definitely worth watching the press conference tonight, IMHO, as there are several topics in need of clarification.

The A340 registration is just a registration of the in Ireland based lease company.
And the ceremony will be in the city Brussels (Grand Place), the pers conferention will be in the b-house, not the ceremony.
