So far the Center of Long Haul Excellence...

The flights are still going to be operated by Brussels Airlines, it was never the intention that Brussels Airlines would decide which destinations Eurowings is going to offer. The operational and the commercial departments are split in most airlines / companies.

So this infamous 'Center' is nothing more then SN offering a wetleas-ish service to (its parent company) EW? So no deciding power for SN at all. Not for short to medium haul, not for long haul...

Lufthansa is launching a route from Frankfurt to Pune in India. Since it is not a heavily travelled route, it is operated by an A319, which does not have a sufficient range. Therefore, there is an intermediate stop in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The A319 also does not have dedicated business seats; therefore, business travellers get three economy seats for themselves to stretch their legs during the 11 hr 35 min of their flight.

This is deemed the worst Lufthansa flight. Did you say "A five-star airline"?
