It will be a wet lease indeed but still will give more flexibility in ops without taking too much risk

airBaltic has been providing A220’s to Lufthansa, Eurowings and Swiss. Soon Brussels Airlines? Just a matter of time I’d say :)

Finally, what an improvement to the hybrid Cathay, as if a new aircraft has just joined the fleet. Now to repaint the Eurowings aircraft A.S.A.P.. Thanks for the link lenain258
They are really slow at repainting their A330s... The new livery was introduced about 1 year ago... and only 2 A330 are repainted, right?

Indeed ...

See for those that are being repainted and those that are in maintenance (type of maintenance - A, B, C ... not indicated though):

For those that do not have enough patience ( :D ): you should take into account they needed all the planes in summer time.

Moreover, maintenance and repainting is usually more focused in winter time (if possible of course). Also I think they maintain and repaint according to a more or less fixed scheme (after x years a plane needs to be repainted anyway, etc.). So it not just a question of doing it as soon as possible.

See also the other airlines of the LH-group in the same site ...

Just my two cents,
Danny

So finally the first batch of A320neo will be delivered to SN as well?

Yes A320neo are joining in 2023 but there will be 2 aircrafts under 100pax on wetlease too.

This was long overdue for thinner routes, like formerly with wet-leases from CityJet (SSJ100), Flybe (Dash 8-400) and bmi (ERJ145). Could it be CityJet, which has currently 19 CRJ-900s (outfitted with 90 seats), of which only a part is operating for SAS?

Will we see Nantes, Hannover, Billund and Nuremberg come back then?
Would be nice to see more of these destinations.
Also, now that Blue Air doesn't fly anymore, why doesn't SN open a route to Bucharest?

Ok, lol :P

Small note: "we fly you to the home of the Belgian Red Devils & Red Flames" is a very long text! :shock:

I've always wondered why they didn't go for the simpler (and easier to read) "Flying to the home of Tintin/Tomorrowland/..."

Anyway, it's nice to see the tail logo/dots with a dark background. Will the other icon-liveries get an update aswel?

I guess that "we fly you" is more like a personal message ! ;)

I'm sure this would be the explanation of the marketing agency ;) Still, doesn't sound good to me.

OO-SFJ is back in Brussels but still in the Eurowings colours.
