*** Invitation B787 Dreamliner for spotters ***

Post by janvdc »

FORWARD NOTICE - INVITATION

( With this invitation, I probably sin against all rules and regulations on this forum. Sorry for that. )

On Monday 10th at 8.45 LT, Ethiopian arrives with the very first B787 to visit our airport.

Exceptionally, we want to provide a special treat to our many Brussels Airport spotter friends.

In total, 60 visitors are invited for an aircraft walkaround-picture opportunity, and to visit the aircraft cabin.

In a few moments, we will launch the story on the Brussels Airport Facebook page. Get ready to enlist: only the first 60 can take part.

Do not miss this "insider information" to enjoy this opportunity. After this forward notice the same rules apply for everyone. So don't miss it, and read our instructions on Facebook carefully.

We hope to see you on Monday !!

This is not my cup of tea, and do not have a FaceBook account either so I could not take part anyway. Still I think this is a very nice move from BAC and well worth a compliment! I suppose the operating airline's consent and collaboration are required so they get their share of flowers too!

Indeed, a very nice gesture! Thank you Brussels Airport and Ethiopian! What would be good to know, is when the tour will take place. That would be easier for those who work to see if they can get some time off :)

Thanks Bralo! Wow, I read it several times and did not see it was at 18:00... maybe I should buy new glasses :geek:

Hope I'm also in the 60 lucky people!

You have to send an e-mail before 18pm (06-09-2012), but I don't see the time for Monday.

Hope I will know it all tomorrow, when I receive the confirmation mail

Don't think it is very fair to only use facebook as a way to let people know.
I am sure I am not the only one around, who does not wants to use facebook, and no I haven't bought shares.

let's stop wining and just be happy that the BAC Social Media Manager took the trouble to put a forward notice on luchtzak.be. Meanwhile, all the best to all you lucky b*st*rds who won an invite! Think about us and share some great pictures, will you? :)
