Air Nostrum CRJ1000 will operate flights for Croatia Airlines, it will replace the Trade Air F100.
eff 01MAY17 Zagreb – Brussels 3-4 weekly

I don't like that! We used to fly the fokker 100 of Trader air on the 21st of august. It should have been my first flight with a fokker.

When Egyptair came daily to Brussels, the Sunday flight came indeed from Luxor. But when I flew on it, it was an A320.

During the years, 1997-2000, Egyptair came even each Sunday with their B747 to Brussels Airport

According to routes online, Thomas Cook Belgium leases B737-5 from airBaltic for Summer 2017 season.

[rwandan-flyer]

Rwanda FM, said today, that RwandAir will start Brussels service, from end of july 2017. I guess it will be tag service with the current service to London Gatwick, which was supposed to be operated via Uganda.

But July seems to be very short, they should open bookings, in coming days, many people have probably already booked flights, for their summer trips

National carrier Rwandair is to launch flights to Belgium -Europe’s central flight route,later this month, Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo announced today.

so, new this summer:
- Rwandair between Kigali and Brussels
- according to flightlevel.be, Qeshm Air will start Brussels - Teheran from the 27th of June 2017.
Is that even possible? Booking is not open yet. Or they want 0 passengers of the first few flights?
Also, the Hamburg route doesn't seem to have ever started...
