I have no concrete source about this and I know wikipedia is not reliable, but nevertheless:

according to wikipedia Air berlin will start from 3 june direct flights to Berlin Brandenburg.

However, no info on the website of Air Berlin or Amadeus...

EDIT: now been removed from the website

[-SCQ-]

Iberia will not resume its route from San Sebastian to Brussels in the upcoming summer season.

And Vigo? Which was first operated by Vueling and last summer by Air Nostrum...

Neither. The autonomous government of Galicia is negotiating with different airlines a route between Santiago de Compostela and Belgium, but this could finally result in a SCQ-CRL ... We'll see.

Hi,

Parma, would have been nice to lof the dornier but a bit too expensive..
Guess some flights to Bologna will loose some pax, but quite curious if this route is one to stay...
Bus. pax couldn't be happy with such shedule so guess they still will opt for SN BLQ..
Will see.. ( nice for the spotters in any case but won't wait too long )

Royal Jordanian Airlines will suspend its route between Amman and Brussels. They will also decrease frequencies to Amsterdam.

No more reservations availble after 18 april on the RJ website....

It is a pitty to see them leaving but no surprise to me, 2012 will be hard for aviation... I expect to see them returning after the hole crisis thing.
