2010 Liège Airport (LGG) latest news

[Acid-drop]

I don't know if it's Thai or SO ...
still trying to get more info.
But they fly a lot from India, and to Bankok, so it looks like Thai trafic.

if it is THAI traffic, it would also be very interresting to know if it is additional traffic to the traffic to FRA or diverted traffic.........

Thai has only a few charters in LGG. Nothing more planed for the future.
They will keep flying to MST for flowers as dutch eat flowers for every lunch it seems.

They are more clever than that: they re-export huge majority of it (African, South Am. Isreali) under "Produced in Holland" tags. :think:

LGG direction doesn't want to give the freight numbers month by month anymore.
Don't know exactly why ...
This year is the best year ever, maybe they want to keep the suspense

an explanation found on MST-Aviation today
(written by mike, )

There is a big issue with traffic rights for Thai cargo on the AMS-BKK flights.
It's only possible for Thaicargo to carry cargo between AMS-BKK under THA/TG prefix and not under SOO or 9S prefix. Here is the problem, when operating under SOO/9S this flights will be seen as Southernair flights and Southernair has no trafficrights on the route. It's not possible for Southernair to use the THA/TG prefix as their aircrafts therefore need to be registered in Thailand.

Let sleeping cats lie (Walloon proverb)
Walloon ? Oufti !
But we also have an English saying:
"Don't count your chickens before they are hatched"
:silent:

[Desert Rat]

You can replace the cat by a lion, it works as well...

[Acid-drop]

that's probably it
they have good numbers and don't want to attract attention too much.
The people who really need to know, they know.

[Acid-drop]

an official communication from Minister Antoine (not confirmed by LGG mgmt) say that LGG should finish the year with more than 600.000 tonnes of cargo.
They should be 6th biggest european cargo airport, before Leipsig and Cologne.
