A very good idea that train link via Brussels Airport! In the future, when the new Josaphat tunnel will be operationable, they could do: The Hague-Rotterdam-( Roosendaal )- Antwerp Central- Brussels Airport- Brussels Schuman- Namur- Luxembourg- ( Strassbourg ). Then you have a train link between all...

Here's a link to the press release on the LH website; http://konzern.lufthansa.com/en/html/presse/pressemeldungen/index.html?c=nachrichten/app/show/en/2009/08/959/HOM&s=0 LH will be codesharing on certain flights of Jet Blue out of JFK and Boston; a very good opportunity for SN to open BRU -Bost...

Here's a link to the article in the Financial Times:
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/db288cda-95c4 ... abdc0.html

Lufthansa and Jet Blue have asked permission at the US Ministery of transport to codeshare on flights between Europe and JFK. This together with CO joining Star at the end of this year will make New York ( EWR and JFKL ) another and important hub for Star Alliance, besides ORD and IAD. Maybe an SN f...

I have just been playing around on great circle mapper website with the various LH group hubs ( yes , I know , I am a tragic case ! ) and even though I do not think that SN should jump on to the North America bandwagon it did occur to me that BRU is the furthest north/west point out of the 5 hubs t...

"at the risk of taking this off topic I am a bit disappointed at the rudeness shown to a new member who only joined us two months ago . I guess the people who attacked him have never made a mistake in any of their posts and have never been new to a site . While I have not agreed with everything...

Some news that also will have an influence on the future of SN within te LH group:
Neelie Croes/EU Commission formaly approved AUA take-over by Lufthansa today...
And now the consolidation/reshuffle of routes,...realy can begin.
Good luck to them all!

@Conti764; JFK is listed 14th on the most important airports of the world ( in pax amounts; 47.716941pax ) compared to EWR on the 21th place( 36.367240 pax ) ( source: magazine aero international 10/2008 ). So JFK is still more important than EWR, and I think for every non US airline. Swiss, LH and ...

What I forgot to mention: 4. Cost efficiency ; within the LH group wich airline ( pilots and flight attendants ) will be the "cheapest"airline in operating costs( for example the amount of income for their fllying staff). This will also will have an influence on the routes (re)shuffle betw...

I agree with most of you that Africa will be the first and most important continent for SN to expand in the next comming years. But I think that new long haul routes to North America will also follow very soon: 1.Within the LH-group, BRU will be a very ideal hub to fly to the USA and Canada. BRU is ...

The Virgin Group still has a small stake in SN Airholding; When SN and Virgin Express consolidated ( "fusie" ), Virgin didn't sell to SN Airholding. I think there's still a representative of the Virgin Group in the new board of directors of SN Airholding ( Stephen Murphy ). In the actual s...

Is it possible that the stake of the Virgin Group in SN Airholding can be switched to Lufthansa for a small part of the Lufthansa stake in BMI to Virgin Atlantic?
Then Lufthansa would already become a majority shareholder in SN Airholding before 2011, when they get full control.

JFK, because there won't be a US Star Alliance partner for this link ( AA = Oneworld, and Delta = Skyteam ). I think in the near future also: -ORD ( LH flies, I think, 4 times a day to ORD out of Frankfurt and 1 time out of Munich );it's a very important Star Alliance hub in the USA. -BOS -IAD In Ca...

In "De Standaard" online you can read an article about all this.
Apparently Brussels Airlines is setting up a campaign to attract new pilots, and they are thinking about increasing the salary...finally!!

I think it's 9W

Do you think they will recruite pilots and cabin crew in Brussels, and open a crewbase in Brussels?
Would be very nice...

I know how bad the cabin crew of SNBA has been treated by their management till now,...realy bad!!! Do you all know they are often humiliated in there so cald "evaluations", by their "o so good coaches"!!! Their evaluation system of the crew is FAR FROM objectif/neutral, and caus...

And also a good opportunity for Brussels Airlines... Maybe, if everything goes well, and if al of this is true :roll: , Jet Airways could buy a part of Brussels Airlines, and use them to spread their passengers in Europe. But the same has been said already about AA and Brussels Airlines. Just a thou...

Hello to you all!! I was very interested in the photos taken by Flybe about Brussels Airport in 2020 ( scale model - Brussels Expo- Vakantiesalon/Salon des vacances ).You can find these photos in the Coppermine Picture Gallery When you have a good look , it seems (to me ) that the "Front park 2...
