Does SN stops codeshare with Air Malta to Malta?

I have to travel to Malta the end of October - flying back beginning of November. I planned to fly with an SN ticket, but apparently, SN stops the codeshare with KM (Air Malta) to Malta.

On the other hand, there is no trace of neither SN or KM flights to Malta in the winter season (no timetable at ...

Clickair to Malta?

Does anyone has more information on Clickair from Barcelona to Malta? They announced this route, but it apparently disappeared from their website.

I would like to fly this in November.

some suggestons on how to fly BRU/CDG/AMS - Argentina

I am planning to go to Argentina from beginning of December to end of January 2007. Does someone has tips for a good deal?

I checked Air Madrid, but on their website, there are no flights from BRU available (yet). Flights from Paris aren't bookable after October 2006.

Your reactions?

I can assure you there were problems Sunday evening, as well as with SK as with other airlines, all had very long waiting rows at check-in.
At least in terminal 2, the luggage belt was hardly moving.
Most of non-SK flights also had long delays (0.5 up to 2 hours ...

luggage problems in Copenhagen.

Last Sunday (2nd of July 2006) I was heading back with SN from CPH to BRU. Apparently there was a strike of the luggage handling. Check-in was very slow as the luggage belt was running very irregularly. So it took us 1 hour to check in. As I noticed there was a problem with the baggage handling, I ...

Apart from the B767, some African flights (e.g. to Conakry SN249) will be operated by A319 between April and June. Any reason for that? Does the B767 not suffice?

Just read the conditions at the bottom of that site: you get 25% of the FF-miles.

Indeed, that is what they say at the pre-announcement for FF-members, which I only received today.

But when booking on Sunday, the site mentionned that I would get at least 1000 miles, so I'm quite sure I have to ...
