Kabila is just a spoiled kid, like Mobutu before him!

I remember Mobutu refusing Sabena's 747s at Kinshasa simply because Air Zaïre didn't have any. :lol:

Btw, if I remember well, the extra 3 weekly flights are supposed to be operated by a Congolese company; SN is just filling in, I assume in exchange for a few dollars flowing to the pocket of His Excellency's government, their final destination I wouldn't want to guess...

If those flights will be cancelled, the Congolese people will be the most inconvenienced.

Am I wrong here?

That was already the case before the DRC CAA decision: SN was allowed 5 flights a week, and also filled in the two Congolese flights. Under which conditions? Let's say that I don't know...

Qeshm Air is now at Brussels, 2 times a week, on Sat and Tue ?
I just remarked it, but there was nothing to remark it.
So it's fine this 2nd flight per week !

I thought that Qeshm flew twice a week last summer, on tuesday and thursday? Maybe they just changed the days on which they come.
