Re: Belarus forces diversion to Minsk of Ryanair flight carrying a dissident in order to arrest him

Aviation safety must never be politicized. How naive are they at IATA? Nothing is going to stop BY from doing this again, apart from not giving the chance. The number of BY citizens who moved to the 3 Baltics has increased significantly, even during the pandemic. I would be very worried if I am an ...

If it just restarts with the same contracts and conditions as Alitalia, it's just going to be another bottomless pit which has to be bailed out again and again.
It's not like Italy isn't connected to the world and Europe without Alitalia

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

We are very close to the definition of breach of trust... I think at this point we can say they're no longer refunding or just refusing refunds for the time To be honest, I had some issues with my first SK refund and also a refusal from KL (which was an error on their side, obviously), but things w...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

I am not an insider, but I reply from own experience: my wife had booked an SN flight from BRU to WAW in July. The flight was cancelled and she was reimbursed in October. Well, sadly, my SN flight to Kigali from April (*April*) is still not refunded. Even more sadly, I'm not joking. I was told I'd ...

Is there already an idea when the Brussels Airlines Lounges will open ? It already is the case in Tallinn and Warsaw, so I would expect Brussels can't lag behind

So what is your proposal?

Give the money to LH, no questions asked.

And next year they close everything, fire everyone, and say a big thank you to the tax payer.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

I think he is actually doing well. Both trying to get the best for the company (job loss and a shrink in fleet was inevitable) and also protecting our tax money by asking for hard promises from LH. If they really want BRU and SN let them prove it. I agree. At this point, more than ever, LH needs to...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

That's why, as already suggested before, the Belgian Government should bail out Brussels Airlines in exchange for a share in Lufthansa: a Belgian Director at the Board of Lufthansa could deflect the policy of the German airline group in favour of SN and BRU. Fine. This makes sense and I think it's ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

Brussels Airport will become a narrowbody heaven with airlines from all neighbouring countries draining out passengers and we might see a handful of widebody activity from UA and DL.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020

Why would the Belgian Government bail out Brussels Airlines?
In the end, this money will be used to force all of us to connect in Frankfurt to Lufthansa flights.
That's just throwing your money away.

Like Estonian Gov owning Nordica which just flies for LOT and SAS.
That's just useless
