And indeed they said it is very boring for the passengers but the crew said if the deboard the plane they loose their cue in the waiting list and they wou...

Re: Ryanair verdacht van belastingontduiking

Dat onze gratis ticketjes van Ryanair betaald worden door de belastingbetaler was al wel langer bekend, maar het gerecht heeft nu blijkbaar een onderzoek geopend. Sorry maar misschien ben ik de enige hier die dit weer een rare belgische actie vind. Ryanair vliegt in alle landen van Europa. Alleen i...

Amazing how an airport like Brussels can run into total disorder! l: This doesn't only happen in BRU. I remember that many times we got some diversion from AMS, CDG, ... when they had snow fall there last year and they years before. I think this is a common problem in all the major airports. I just...

Still I can't understand that pilots can confuse themselfs. Imagine, you are on a taxiway and want to take-off there. Don't they realise then taht they see the taxiline (what they are not supposed to see if they are on the runway)? It should be clearly visible as it is yellow and black. Also for lan...

It looks beautifull. Will this plane stay in these colours or will they continue to change the paintsheme? Maybe if this one to once be delivered at Emirates it could stay in these colours no?

They should attract Easyjet, so we could have the battle of the low fares in Belgium... I think if easyjet will come to Belgium they will fly to Brussels National airport and not to Charleroi. I thought they were already some plans and talks with easyjet in case they want to come to use the old sat...

Indeed very good action of the KLM crew and also from schiphol. I really think the placement of these machines is a good acquisition for the airport there. Also I think that they might start to invest for this type of machines in Brussels too and start training the airport workers to use it ofcourse...

The truth is that if it happens to Ryanair or any other (for any reason) unpopular Airline, the alligations are made here before the news is spread. But a technical problem is to be excluded; SN is vaccinated and thus immune. A way to cover own chauvinistic mess ? Maybe ! I totally agree with you. ...

Re: New engine trouble again for Ryanair

Now a detail: when I deboarded I heard very clearly say a ground technician to people in the cockpit " than it is a matter of maintenance" I have heard enough, O'Learry. A matter of maintenance. I suppose they were not talking about the new roads from Prestwick to Glasgow. Or the Ducati s...

Ik ben net eens gaan kijken op de ryanair site en ik vind dat het op zich toch duidelijk is wat je betaald.

So I guess they already have already 5 A380 in construction for the moment! Isn't it a risk for Airbus to already manufacture these planes ...
