Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal


The most beautiful one (Poppies) wasn't allowed to win, because it was considered "too Flemish" by the very Francophone-heavy jury... as you can see in this video :o

I meant all those frames that don't feature a proper SN livery.
I understand but it is time that also more widebodies have the new livery. Almost all A32F have the new livery

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal


OO-SFY has/had PW4168 engines.

On the Home page, the SN Rejuvenating article referred to standardisation on Trent 772-60 engines.
Could it be that this is what they do now in LIS?
I was under the impression that changing engine type is not that simple.

Tango and Zulu have also the PW engines.

On the other hand, Paepe said that the three North American destinations (IAD, JFK, YYZ) are faring well.

So Lufthansa is doing is job in BRU... Axes Mumbai.. i can not believe that a direct flight to India will not work, with the large Indian community and the Diamant sector. Business people don’t want to fly 1stop... i see a lot of passengers go to India via AMS.

One can discuss a lot about brands, we could have a look on Facebook and how many followers some airline have (only the ones that spring into my mind):

And why did they chose Brussels Airlines instead of Belgian Airlines at that time ?


Belgian politics! Some people in the North of the country dislike anything that carries the name "Belgian". That's also why the TV broadcaster BRT changed its name to VRT for example.

Re: BRU: B787 versus A350


Hi all,

Long time ago, BRU long haul was mainly A330 or B767 (and also B777).

With the new types coming in (of course A330 will stay for a long time because of SN) we see more and more B787 and A350 ...

B787:
Tokyo ANA B787-800
Addis Ababa ET B787-800
