I was wondering if you could recommend me some TV report about the Sabena drama. I understand French German and English, so any language would ...

Thank you all for your kind answers.

KVS seems great, but I am not willing to spend any money ... so I will just stick to amadeus.net tool. As for flighstats, it may work for some routes/airlines but it seems not for my home airport, nor other searches I have tried.

I have been to TGU in the late 80's and early 90's. It was certainly not "world-class", specially for incoming pax, but also definitvely not horrid. 3rd world (ish) yes, but not nightmarish.

The same for other airports in the country : San Pedro Sula (at the time the best airport in the country ...

kvstool looks great, but the login details and the website is horrible. I understood there is a "free" option using your Flightstats login info, right ?

I would like to know which website do you use if you want to check airline schedules. There are, of course, many websites around, but most if not all of them are booking systems. Often they are designed to provide you the cheapest option between point A and B, and are not intended to provide you a ...

I have noticed than in the 70's and 80's a number of airlines used Luxembourg as a starting point in central Europe for intercontinental flights.

International air bahama for instance, flew between Nassau and Luxembourg (!)

Did this airline had any ...

PT,Brasil and half of Africa are Portuguese speaking countries, it is not some secondary language.

So what ?

btw, i live in Galicia, so Portuguese is a bit like my second language because it is the same as Galician, so again ... what is your point ? Where is the "cultural experience" ? And if ...

Well ... I was thinking it would be more a "culture crash" rather than "someone at Iberia should review their geography lessons " :roll: It seems on the Spanish version of the website things are just as they should be. -- "Africa y oriente medio" so no mistake :mrgreen:

Hi all,

I've been collecting airline timetables for many years. More recently I have stopped down for a number of reasons: firstly, because of lack of storage space :D but also because most airlines, as we all know, won't publish paper timetables any more, at least in Europe and most of the ...

Thanks guys, very interesting answers ! it is pitty that this network is no longer in service, I guess inside Belgium road/rail posed enough competition and for international traffic, pax prefered the confort of planes ... but still, landing in the very city centre is a big plus !

Hi,

I've seen pictures and some memorabilia in the net about the helicopter divisions of KLM and Sabena. I think KLM helicopters did chiefly oil ring workers transportation, and aerial photographs, am I right ?

What about Sabena? I've seen some large helicopters depicted and I think they might ...

Hi

I am just curious about which airlines do operate scheduled flights with helicopters. So far, the ones I know of are:

in Europe :

Helisureste (doing the Ceuta <> Málaga leg in Spain)
Alidaunia in Italy
Heli Air Monaco

Former operators are Eurocopter (their Helsinki <> Tallin route is ...

I reckon it is just a booking code for the economy cabin.

Hi

I wonder what the exact relationship between Sn and TV is right now ? In the past they did codeshare , are they still doing so ? It does not make much sense to me, since SN has great cabin service (I reckon it is by far one of the best European carriers nowadays) while TV is a LCC.

Hi all,

After reading this forum, it seems to me that TNT is flying charter passenger flights to holiday destinations in the Mediterranean ? Am i right ? I am very curious about this. I even found an "airline meal" at this site for this "airline". "TNT Airways" , code TAY, is even listed at ...

I guess pretty much the same that happened when an European airline ordered a DC-9 or a MD-83 ;)

(or when they order a 737-800, for that matter). Firstly, it is flown almost empty , almost no seats and so on, and only a few guests , if any fly the delivey flight (Top airline officials and so on ...

Spanair are in Star Alliance (as a full member) and I would say they are smaller than SNBA

interesting ... once a really good airline, now they are more a "basket case" . I'm afraid Star Alliance let them in mostly because of their SK/LH ties. (In fact, their European network is nothing but much ...

Received today via Google alerts :

Greece's troubled Olympic Airlines to continue flying

Planes from the UK to Gibraltar overfly Spain.

I read once that some years ago air controllers had to read a long speech (Spain's official position on the subject) to any plane which was leaving to gibraltar, much to the annoy of the flight crew. They have withdrawn this now.

GB Airways was ...

Strange ... AFAIK so far they were operating wet leased flights for JK and charters for football teams ... are they planning to become a LCC ?
