Re: Air Belgium in 2022

Very unclear positioning from Air Belgium. There's a significant lack in vision from the management.

Re: Air Belgium in 2022

That 787 will replace the 767 TUI NL is using now (OOJNL). It’s not an addition to the NL fleet. LH never really worked in BE, at least for TUI. I wonder how AB is performing on LH leisure routes. Bcs TUI, is a lazy company regarding attracting clients. They think that the brand is selling itself. ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2021

I don't understand why there should be any Belgian flag or colors on an SN plane? Other legacy carriers don't have it... KL has no Dutch flag, nor the 'national' coloŕ (orange), neither has LH, OS,... Air Belgium does, but is has the name 'Belgium' in it, as does AF, IB, AZ,... The 'Belgian identit...

In winter 2021/2022, Ryanair will launch twice-weekly flights from Charleroi to Suceava in Romania.

This is an official press release from Klasjet.

Apparently it's not the first time they're pointed out by other EU unions.

Re: 2021 Brussels South Charleroi Airport (CRL/EBCI) latest news

I think that Eurowings would never have come to Charleroi if Brussels Airlines was still part of their business. Neither BRU and SN were informed of the move of Eurowings to fly from CRL. Eurowings is part of LH and Eurowings worked together with SN. If there would be flights, it was obvious from B...

Re: Ryanair (Holdings) in 2021

Ryanair asks Belgian government to reduce its airport taxes.

The company tackles the "illegal" 290 million € state aid to SN.
