Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

Not sure if this is the right place for this remark but lets see. Today 7 departures to the East Asia. All departed with huge delays (between 1 and 2 hours), just as some SN flights to Africa and a couple of America bound long hauls. I suppose this is not just coincidence but there was some issue at ...

Re: Anomalies in BRU-ANR-CRL-KJK-LGG-OST in 2026

I observed a strange flightpath of the A343 that brought Club Brugge to Kazakstan last sunday. Anyone who can explain the zigzag in below picture ? I did not see the same effect with other planes flying in the neighourhood.

Re: BRU Summer 2026: news, new routes, airlines

Return to Kilimanjaro, not a "new" destination out of BRU : Sabena started flights in 1982. Can't find year they stopped, but suppose it was at least some years before bankruptcy.

Re: BRU Summer 2025: news, new routes, airlines

Correct for now, it seems that the Union(s) refuse to comply to official instructions to restart working. Since my message "planned restart suspended" has become visible on their site.

Re: BRU Summer 2025: news, new routes, airlines

To put the importance of our BRU airport in perspective (or our feet on the ground) : Air Canada is restarting his operations since a couple of hours. Most European flights will fly off from Montreal (even Toulouse !) this evening, except : BRU... :cry:

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

The solution could be very simple : go for full automatisation. From my own experience : 10+ automatic pasport-scanning lines supervised by 2 or 3 agents result in no cue and top notch experience.Where ? SIN of course....from where we could learn a lot more about efficiency.

Re: Miles and More

I've contacted them by mail for a clarification on the last sentence in their correspondence : "collected miles will remain valid untill 30 June 2025 as a goodwill measure" !
