It will not be an A330 from TAM.

A second hand A330-2"23"? not coming from TAM, I'm quite curious now!

Joining the guessing game: Singapore has a couple of stored 333s that are relatively young.

Brussels Airlines is planning to phase out its fleet of twelve ARJ-100s by the end of 2017, airline CEO Bernard Gustin has told the AirFinance Journal.

Speaking during the interview, Gustin said the Lufthansa subsidiary would replace the aircraft with a combination of A319-100s and A320s. The regional jets average 17.2 years of age.

The Belgian carrier is primarily an Airbus Industrie operator employing seventeen A319-100s, seven A320-200s, three A330-200s and five A330-300s. Leased hulls include two Dash 8-400 (wet-leased from flybe.) and one ERJ-145 (wet-leased from bmi regional).

Some details on the Avros replacement are revealed in ATWonline:

The airline has 12 Avros on strength. They will start to leave the fleet next April, with four having departed by the end of the 2016 summer season. The remainder will gradually go over the following year. All are leased.

Brussels Airlines intends to replace the British-built Avros, which last rolled off the production line in 2001, with Airbus A319s and A320s, although not on a one-for-one basis, given the Airbuses’ greater capacity. The first A320 arrived earlier this year, while two more plus an A319 will arrive in April 2016, with more due later.

[OO-ITR]

The first A320 arrived earlier this year, while two more plus an A319 will arrive in April 2016, with more due later.

Probably ATW means that next year the A320 will arrive first, followed by a few A319s

Or they refer to the one "received" from Thomas Cook earlier this year.
All in all, not a very spectacular development in 2016, to say the least.
