Now just waiting when Jet Airways will announce their timetable to Newark via Brussels.

I don't expect to see QR at BRU in 2007 but it seems that they want to offer more European cities then the one in Eastern and one in Northern Europe.

Important: please not this is still Subject To Government Approval. This means that US Airways has prepared everything concerning the startup of this route but... it still possible they cancel this flight!

However, you are already able to make a booking on this flight via their website, and also in Sabre. I presume in other GDS this will be possible too. But it doesn't mean that you can make bookings and that their flights are displayed in the GDS that it's 100% certain this plan will go through...

Let's wait a little more closer to the date of their inaugural flight and... important... to an official press release of US about their flights between BRU and PHL.

Anyway, I wish US good luck in the Belgian market! The Transatlantic market ex-BRU is changing a lot in 2007!!!

I don't expect to see QR at BRU in 2007 but it seems that they want to offer more European cities then the one in Eastern and one in Northern Europe.

The next two European destinations seem to be Warsaw and Stockholm.
But could BRU really support these new flights? After all we already have Etihad, which will focus on the Belgian market when they will axe the BRU-YYZ leg this summer.

Hello

Any information already about the Abu Dhabi - Brussels - Toronto route?

I expect this to be the same for the summer , maybe some slight changes.
Probably they will just extend the validity for the summer (until 29.10?).

Jetair choose Freebird for flights to Turkey this summer. I have no information about Inter Airlines. Are they still going to fly for Jetair?

Hello

I don't really know wetter this question is on topic here , but since the title of this topic also mentions 'FREQUENCY's' (maybe new , but anyway) I give it a try here (not having to open a new topic).

on wich frequency can I receive the ATIS arrival of Brussels Airport @ Antwerp?

I already have these ATIS frequency's

BUN (110.600)
BUB(114.600)
FLO (112.050)
HUL (117.550)
AFI (114.900)
BRU (121.750)

I would think it's on the BUN (Bruno?) frequency? But I really don't get anything out of it.

So can anyone confirm this , either give me the correct ATIS ARR BRU for Antwerp area please? Thanks very much. (you can also do this by PM if you wish to stay anonimous or if it's forbidden to give it open on this topic, wherefor also my excuses in that case.))

Best regards: Yannick
