Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
The year-round service of US Airways PHl to BRU, becomes a 'seasonal' service..
Last flight on 23 october! It will be a summer seasonal service only..
What a pitty, but with this economic crisis, It is not a suprise...
Not only BRU, also Malpensa and Zurich

Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
Not a surprise, I'd say. They are the smallest of the US carriers operating to BRU and, unlike CO, UA, AA and DL who either have a long time settlement in Brussels or have started ops in economically viable times, they started in 2007 at a time when the crisis (although fairly small in size) was already looming around. Not to mention they don't have the best reputation of the US carriers.SabenaForever wrote:The year-round service of US Airways PHl to BRU, becomes a 'seasonal' service..

Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
I think it's still a surprise but I think we will never know the exact reason. If we have a look at the loads, they are very good: always between 90% and 95%.Conti764 wrote:Not a surprise, I'd say.

Brussels Airlines is going to increase their number of flights to Dakar to a daily flight. Banjul will increase to three flights.
Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
Do current aircraft utilization rates permit this? I understand they are quite high already, can they fly another two rotations?Atlantis wrote:Brussels Airlines is going to increase their number of flights to Dakar to a daily flight. Banjul will increase to three flights.
Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
Probably they will reduce frequencies to other destinations in Africa.sdbelgium wrote:Do current aircraft utilization rates permit this?

But that is usually not announced.

When is the new LCC terminal due to open? Do we know which airlines will operate from it, to where and how often? Do Brussels Airport have any guarantees that easyJet will expand their network from Brussels?
Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
The LCT will be open by next winter season, in a couple of months.summersso wrote:When is the new LCC terminal due to open? Do we know which airlines will operate from it, to where and how often? Do Brussels Airport have any guarantees that easyJet will expand their network from Brussels?
It will never be confirmed openly if there will be guarantees. That's part of the file and not for the public.
Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
OK, but how where the yields? You can fill a plane and still make a loss.Atlantis wrote:

Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
I know, that's why I only spoke about the loads. I have no idea about the yields.Conti764 wrote:OK, but how where the yields? You can fill a plane and still make a loss.Atlantis wrote:

We do not know which airlines will enjoy the LCC, but lets make a listsummersso wrote:When is the new LCC terminal due to open? Do we know which airlines will operate from it, to where and how often? Do Brussels Airport have any guarantees that easyJet will expand their network from Brussels?
Atlas Blue
Blue Air
Clickair
Flybe
Easyjet
Myair
skyeurope
vueling
Windjet
On an average day, we will reach maybe 10 outgoing flights??
Some of above airlines will not exist anymore by the end of the year.
Not all of them will/can move to the LCT.
I stick to my prediction: this LCT will be a failure (paid for by PAX and airlines using the expensive part of the airport).

Re: BRU winter 09-10: latest news, routes, airlines
I'll just add Aer Lingus to your list. But I'm not sure if non-Schengen destinations like "Dublin" will be served? Flybe also exclusively serve non-Schengen destinations, as do Atlas Blue, so I suppose the LCC Terminal will indeed be both Schengen and non-Schengen...?

If I follow your logic they ought to shut down PAX Ops at LGG as well. Less than 10 PAX flights a day and paid by cargo operations (or is it the Walloon gvnmt?).
