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

My best guess:
Thunderstorm season has started combined with RWY 07L arrivals, we'll see this more often in the next months

It would make also sense if the same crew flew after to Hongkong and operate return flight wit SFD...
I think that's far more complicated then it looks at first sight (operational, duty times, legal, cost, ...).

TUI Airline in 2026

StijnVN wrote: 11 Nov 2025, 22:15 Flightradar24 shows already a new reg. OO-TMG, that will be number 9 of 15 ordered for TUI Fly Belgium.
Came in directly from BFI (like all other MAX deliveries).

@moderators: is there already a "Tui airline in 2026" topic? Can't seem to find it.

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



Just a glitch in FR24.

The flight tracking (OST-NQZ) also stopped about 1 hour prior to landing, it has not been tracked until Astana - or at least that's what I see on my FR24.


The return flight did not appear either.

It did, but it was not listed in the OST arrivals list. But it was ...

Does this mean that all airciraft will be equipped with the typical "bulb" antenna at the rear upper fuselage?

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

With Air China landing in BRU as well, the list of long haul expansion for 2026 is becoming great. This must be one of the biggest long-haul expansions since the 90's I imagine!

I'm wondering what eqv HC will use:their complete fleet is allmost grounded all the time, they lease a 772 from MYWAY Georgie ( for CDG service)and have 3 A320leased from Getjet for regional services...Don't know if these can make it to BRU!

Exactly and South Africa has been tried multiple times from BRU in the past without a lot of success.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2025

If I'm not mistaken it's even "on block/off block" times. Meaning that only when the blocks are being removed and the pusback is started, time starts to count. So doors closed, but waiting for a lot for 2 hours: working hours not started yet and "lost" but I can be wrong of course - this is how I ...

Could be a whole bunch of operational reasons but availibility of the tracks (Northeren already too full?) is my best guess

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

Just because no release winter schedule yet, I think Tenerif is in the top 3 of leisure destinations ex-BRU.

Yes, I will make one at the end of February. It's still too early and there are things in the pipeline

They have 174 seats iso the usual 180 according to brusselsairport.be, I don't have more details
