Re: TUI fly Belgium in 2020

I was on that flight SQD-PUJ-BRU and experienced a go-around this morning at BRU when the A330 was flaring over the runway 25L at only a few meters hight . That was a first for me and I enjoyed it. WOW.

I have seen a TUI dreamliner at the ramp by arrival in PUJ and BRU

Re: Air Belgium in 2018

(*) Air Belgium's OPS says that Antwerp Airport indeed is possible for an A340, given the extremely low fuel load and the total embargo on hold luggage and cargo. Antwerp airport is very happy to announce the extend of the runway by 1500 m. http://www.airbelgium.be/en/routings/domestic-flights
