Re: TUI Aviation in 2023

TuiFly should maybe think about collaborating with Air Belgium for some Caribean destinations
Their only 787 has quite often problems and the news that several hundreds of passengers are blocked for days with poor or no information is simply unprofessional.

Very bad publicity.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

Unions are still thinking like in medieval times. I nearly spat my tea out! Unions in the Middle Ages? Seriously? Your timeline is wrong by about 500 to 1000+ years. Unless you meant SN is treating their workforce as serfs. Has Atlantis really made this statement ? That is unbelievable. We should b...

Re: Dutch slot coordinator excludes 24 airlines from flying to/from Amsterdam Schiphol

Schiphol works on a way to kick out JetBlue and Air India Last year, AMS faced a staff shortage that caused chaos. KLM had to refuse connecting luggage on European flights while the airport limited flights because it could not handle the volume. In summer 2024, Schiphol could cite its staffing issu...

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines

Off topic: I'm in Uzbekistan at the moment. I don't think there's that big of a market to attract tourists (from BRU) though. Although it's very beautiful. Tourism not so much but business is very important in oil and gaz, construction, IT, food processing, etc. Many of them is import/export for Be...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

Maybe off topic; but can we please stop the constant bashing on SN ? Not only off topic but also not relevant and repetitive, this is a forum not a fanclub! People are free to give their opinion, that’s what forums are for, as long as it’s done politely. When people make wrong comparisons, just poi...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023

The so-called savoir-faire for African destinations is actually a poor and risky niche business. No destinations in North and South America or Asia where economic growth and stability are a certainty. Unfortunately, this will not change in the foreseeable future. In a recent interview with Nina Öwe...

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines

Dear Atlantis, i understand your comments and efforts to try to justify BRU and SN weaknesses...
But it becomes pathetic.
You, like BRU and SN loose all credibilty.

It is just sad to see poor performance.

The A330 (OE-LAC) is on the ground in Baku for 2 full days. Apparently Air Belgium does not need the aircraft for other operations during this period. Flight may be too long for the same crew to turn around and bring the aircraft back. Air Belgium would have had to position another crew the day bef...
