Flights to Dubaï and Hong-Kong have been operated for weeks already !

Like some intra-european destinations as Vienna, Basel, Milano, London Stansted and East-Midlands who have been operated for months by FedEx B757 and FedEx crew (formely operated by ASL Belgium 😢) That might even be against european regulation according to BECA !

So it seems the MD11 will do IND-LGG-DXB
PVG-LGG-MEM remains as before
HKG-LGG-HKG is new (it was one way only before)

During the Week end, there are exceptions.

Qatar will have an interesting routing for some charter flights
DOH-MST-LGG-MEX-IAH

MST-LGG, that might be the shortest cargo link ever.

Really sad that they left BRU because of the noise restrictions of the Brussels capital.
Cargo is really suffering
