Given the low altitude on return: pressurization issue?

Are you sure? FLR is 1560m / 5118ft, ANR is 1510m / 4954ft. So it's a difference of less than 200ft, about 50 meters?

The only thing this airport needs, is a hub to a big airport with connections to other continents !
They did have that, until British Airways decided they needed a longer runway to lift more passengers per flight and turn a profit, and airport authorities did not agree (or maybe the ...

It will be closed on the 10th of January.

Why would Voka ever be against?

In all honesty, I do not know what NS's ICE Benelux plans are, but I do not expect a Dutch railway company to have a lot of consideration for BRU Airport. What are the managers of SN and BRU Airport doing, except sitting comfortably in their arm chair. OK, I am exagerating.
In the terms of BRU ...

as a passenger if possible
1st avoid CRL
2nd avoid BRU


In a nutshell : avoid Belgium. :lol:


In a nutshell... fly from ANR? :lol:
Or maybe OST... But in all honesty: BRU isn't that bad: for Belgian travellers it's situated centrally, and the time lost travelling to another airport doesn't ...

It will not happen. The Eurostar (new name of the Group) will not stop at Brussels Airport. Their CEO Gwendoline Cazenave said yesterday at the press conference presenting the new Eurostar-Thalys integration that the airport is not on a high-speed line and is well connected to Brussels Midi and ...

To be honest, the only route I could see them succeed as a passenger airline is Kinshasa. But will never happend unless they got traffic right. All the rest is deem to fait without right partner.

It’s time for Air Belgium to stop their PAX operation and focus on cargo. If not they will be ...

Not so sure, I fly on regular basis to Cambodia and I miss the BRU-BKK flight. I always try to avoid multiple stops even in ME-3.
I prefer a flight of 10 hours, to rest.
Wel if SIA open a BRU-SIN, will surely fly with them. (BRU-BKK is way better but another history)


I guess every destination ...

In de TIJD newspaper today, the CEO of SN complaints about the political unwillingness to connect BRU with the HST-network.

In times where short haul flights (less than 500km) are under pressure to be cancelled ( forbidden) it is impossible to understand.

We had lots of incompetent Ministers of ...

Low cost doesn't mean cheap...

OO-SFG, performing SN231 BRU-COO and onward to ABJ made a U-turn above Algeria and landed back at BRU. Airspace at Benin and Coted'Ivoire closed? http://news.acotonou.com/h/146257.html ?

Auch, and moving traffic from BRU to the congested AMS seems like a bad idea for TUI?

Hi,

Strange as you see... that RTM ( 3* daily ) and AMS ( BA+KLM) and LUX all got this connection...
Flights in ANR weren't that bad on the route ..
Even EIN has a 3* daily rotation to STN...
So nothing new for ANR is indeed strange...

BA with E175 even TUI with E190 could be working...

The socio-economic impact for the local workforce would be, at least in the short-term, a disaster. Given its status as capital of the EU and NATO, there is a very large amount of traffic that is coming into BRU, not just from government officials and EU/NATO staff, but lobbyists, foreign ...

What about the Diablo-surcharge? Is that only for the NMBS (or infrabel), or does part of it go to Brussels Airport?

Intermodality is complex. For it to work efficiently and attract pax, you need to offer check-in at the point of departure (of the train to connect with a flight, and that, too, has a cost). Plus automatic transfer of baggage upon arrival (of the train) at the airport, to the flight. On the way ...
