Re: Trivia 2023 (miscellaneous news) - part 2
Update on the possible volcanic eruption in Iceland: Today on RÚV English Radio, why you shouldn't worry about any forthcoming trips to Iceland. There is still a lot of uncertainty about where, or whether, any volcanic eruption may take place on the Reykjanes Peninsula. One thing that can be said th...

Re: Trivia 2023 (miscellaneous news)
Thanks, Lux_avi, for a rather constructive post, if we except the criticism against a member of the news team. Criticism? Lux pointed out your article was plain wrong, you then insisted you were right on the basis of notam which was totally unrelated and even now, iso just admitting you were wrong,...

Re: Trivia 2023 (miscellaneous news)
Poor and unsensational "remark" at its best. Kristín Jónsdóttir, head of department at the Icelandic Meteorological Office, suggests that people will need to remain in suspense for the next few days to witness how events unfold. The stakes are high, as authorities fear they might have as ...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Everywhere you have to work harder, more, being flexible for the same money. Just to make it clear to people what ’everywhere’ means: for the average Belgian it means a physical working place ’at home’ to commuting 1hr to a big city. For the world of aviation it means chosing between Zaventem, Char...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Freedom of speech 😂. Or can it not be in the police state Belgium 😂🤣. And it's a forum. We also don't have to agree with what you are writing (also to remain polite) 😉.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Would you like to compare the working conditions between SN cabin crew and LH, KLM, AF, BA…?
When you don’t know, there are two options; inform yourself or just don’t talk (to remain polite).

Re: BRU Summer 2024: news, new routes, airlines
Erm, most people look for a route and do not really care which airline flies it.
Btw, the merge has not been approved yet.

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

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
We're speaking Airbus here, not Boeing. Remember United receiving its first A321neo in October? The aircraft spent 3 weeks on the ground in Houston before its first flight. It all depends on the things you want to install or have in the aircraft. Remember TUI receiving 3x E2's as well? ;) I'm just ...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
That still doesn't really explain the 4 weeks timeframe IMHO.
TUI never took that long between the 1st commercial flight and the delivery of its brand new planes. That includes new types under the very slow BCAA.

Amelia Flybe Air India ... just a few for now Play? Norwegian ? Should not be a surprise as the Dutch government goal is to strengthen the position of KLM. The protest from KLM are just for *the Buhne" Hmm; so reducing movements from 500k to 425k is strengthening the position of KLM to you? Th...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Just a few numbers to think about :) Luxair growing to a fleet of 33 aircraft for a country of 660.000 inhabitants. Belgium has 11.7 million inhabitants and SN has currently 43 aircaft. https://media1.giphy.com/media/SqfHFPbzxw98xwFOiE/200.gif?cid=6c09b952nvfgoa6jdlvb9qepyf7jqwg8fbmm41h30hc21372&am...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
It remains a risky and non-ambitious business modell.. Very sad. There is a difference between ambitious and suicidal. The ideas of you have for SN are not ambitious, they are suicidal. Do you prefer to have a (relatively) small carrier in Belgium (still not doing very well, btw...) or end up like ...

Re: Air Belgium in 2023
I hope it's readable: The title is wrong: Air Belgium doesn't scrap ALL passenger flights, it scraps only SCHEDULED passenger flights. ACMI flights can also involve passengers. And most of the Belgian press, either Flemish or French, makes the same mistake. https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/tui-av...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2023
Yes but the situation has changed in the meantime and no airlines of the group are allowed at the moment to depart to TLV. Belgian gouvernement asked too late for those flight while German and Swiss gouvernement has been much more reactive. The LH744 flight happened the same day the SN flight shoul...
