Any idea what is going on with Tuifly ? We are bound to fly with them to Tenerife in about 2 weeks, with flight number TB1765. However this flight number is non-existing on flightmapper and on flightradar24 the flight was scheduled last saturday as well but no actual flight took place as far as I c...

Wow that sounds very optimistic to me. Not an expert and only based on what I see when dropping of someone at CRL, but I thought it would take still over a year to get that finished? I don't see any landing light infrastructure not yet neither on the carpark side?

2 new A330 neo for AB, mentioned in Het Nieuwsblad today (article only in Dutch): https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20210701_92393488

Unusual indeed instead of heading for AFI, then the leg North of BRU followed by the right hand to intercept the ILS. Maybe they requested this short cut to speed up the arrival? Reason? I seem to remember that many many years ago you could get this shorty when arriving after Beauvechain had closed...

I think this is a planned phase-out. Sad to see this Belgian Icon go though

Well as long as the belly is filled with cargo, passenger load factor is only the secondary concern

Thank you!

No charter from Rome?

Seems logical: long-haul and probably some heavy cargo on board, guess we'll see more of this during the works on 25R/07L.

Or is another possibility that 2 crews are flying in with one being "off duty" so changing crews in Mauritius to avoid a night-stop or is that not done?

You rock, 737MAX! At least gives me some more insight. And used to fly the 738 as well back in the days in FS2004, lovely machine!

Thx 737MAX. I know it can be used technically but why should you do that? Bleed air is provided by the engines, no?

Hi all While watching [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTnKdGtjrIY[/youtube], I saw on the ECAM "APU avail" during approach. Could someone please explain which technical reason there might be behind this? Curious to see as I thought this was never (well, never) done inflight? Thank...

Pretty sure that quite some Thomas Cook destinations and secondary cities are in the 22 destinations to be reduced. This news is no surprise at all to me but thoughts are with the employees who are giving everything they can day and night. Maybe I should become more local minded myself as well and a...

Hi, no it's a scheduled service

Don't have a lot of details but some days ago it was mentioned that LGG has been choosen to function as big cargo hub. Don't remember exactly if it was choosen by a government or by a private company.

Any pictures of BRU with all planes parked at the airport?

Where is brussels airlines parking their fleet? Any pictures of BRU? Probably this will bring in sad memories on the Sabena times when their whole fleet was grounded right after the bankruptcy...

I think he simply means that if your position wasn't already the strongest, the Corona story definitely will not help neither
