Thomas Cook has announced the inauguration of new routes to Reykjavik in a recent press release (see viewtopic.php?p=283298#p283298)
I was present at that event this Saturday 29 June 2013 and I made the pictures with comments hereunder:
The aircraft departed 45 minutes late due to air traffic restrictions in Bastia, where the Tour de France was arriving today !
To be followed hereunder with the Reykjavik inauguration.

The Reykjavik inauguration started immediately after the departure of the Bastia flight.
The passengers got the same treatment: champagne and hors d'oeuvres. The speeches were very similar. In addition there was an inauguration cake for all.

Hi André,
Well done on being present on this inaugural. Too bad you didn't get to fly both routes or at least one of them Thomas Cook did a good job on turning this into an event for the pax on the 1st flight, it's not too often seen at BRU.
