Very funny but poor communication obviously.

Seems that UA will also use the B787-1000 for the Chicago-Brussels route next summer

Exactly. Just checked the first week from 29 March 2020 on Hainan booking system, and only non-direct flights.

Opportunity for Air Belgium.

Is this "inside information" or can we see this on a website?
I mean the requests for slots from airlines to a airport.
Flights to Liverpool? Great!

It was always announced since the beginning that AC would operate 5 times Toronto but year round

[nordikcam]

There will be no daily flight to Toronto!!!!

No more than last year !
At the beginning YUL was 4 or 5 times a week with AC...and now daily...and 12 weekly with SN. So may be we could expect...

And once again: strong rumours that SIA will start flights to and from BRU in 2020.
Very curious.

Meanwhile confirmed.

This is Good News.
A Premium Airline.

This is wath BRU needs: more Top airlines,
instead of LCC's who all fly to same destinations, meanwhile killing each other with crazy prices.

Hopefully now more UA destinations, return of AA, some LATAM destinations (to Brazil, Colombia,Peru..), Mexico-city (now KL takes it all) (higher frequencies of Hainan destinations, India connection,.. more QR frequencies and why not a QR connection to Houston,..

Quality Airlines welcome.

Pier A West extension : just do it.

Chicago O’Hare – Brussels eff 28MAR20 787-10 replaces 777-200ER, 1 daily

Apples and oranges: you cannot say SIN has 40K pax from BRU, which currently means everyone flying from A BRU to B SIN via XYZ means to go there and in the same paragraph say this or that ME3 hub has that many passengers to/from BRU, knowing that the vast majority of those pax are not flying to/from BRU from/to AUH, DOH, DXB as origin or destination.

Probably BRU knows quite well how many PAX check in with SIN as final destination.
Be it via LH, KL, QR, EK or others.
Up to SQ now to take their part of the market.

Certainly, a lot of people will prefer direct connection.
Trust SQ people have made their homework well .
