If I look well on Brussels Airport website, Hewa Boro will offer three flights a week from Kinshasa.

Anyone news on that?

Tomorrow morning, 05.55, MP will fly again to Zanzibar.

The B763 will fly first to Mombasa and will serve afterwards Zanzibar again after a year or so. BelgiumExell was the last one who served Zanzibar ex-BRU.

I saw that the topic about the Hainan flights is closed now. But maybe we can discuss here about it.

I saw that the journal "De Standaard" updated their article and they mention that Hainan has a 70 - 80% loadfactor on the route to BRU. IMO that's not bad. I thought it was 50 or 60%.

They also mention that Hainan is considering to offer daily flights to BRU. But I think that's a little bit too early to predict that. I hope first that the new office at Beijing will work and that the 500.000 euro's every year will help to stimulate the local tourist offices.

Just saw on the new Brussels Airport site a statement claiming that the information in the newspapers regarding Hainan is wrong. The line is apparently a big success and the reduction is only to 3 flights in stead of 2.

On the new site of Brussels Airport there's an add saying 'Detroit, daily direct flights starting Spring 2007'.

Who is going to fly it?

Just found an article that Northwest is coming to Brussels! But most of you probably already know...
