SNB had a significant bird strike about two weeks ago, hence the long AOG.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
And so Smurfs are gone?
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
Why would the Smurfs be gone? SNB is Rackham, not the Smurfs.
In any case, as far as I know, SN Maintenance & Engineering doesn’t have the capability to do a full repaint at BRU, so the paint scheme on SNB should still very much be the same.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
No hangar at BRU is able to make a full repaint anyway...

Lufthansa Group, with Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian, Brussels Airlines and Eurowings as major airlines, will ground 150 airplanes due to falling demand!

Former Governor of the National Bank of Belgium Jan Smets is to replace Etienne Davignon as Chairman of Brussels Airlines in May.

Simultaneously, Christina Foerster also takes up the co-chairmanship of the Belgian airlines, thus replacing Thorsten Dirks, in a move which keeps Mrs Foerster involved in the company she was CEO of, while following up on the decision by owner Lufthansa not to integrate Brussels Airlines into Eurowings, of which Thorsten Dirks was the CEO.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
I am a bit puzzled, looking at several European destinations for the coming week, prices with SN are all around 300€, one way, which is strange as load factors must be low.
Booked a flight to VCE (I know!) with AE via MAD for 90€ where SN was asking 320. I then started checking several other destinations (TLS, CPH, LYS, ... ) and saw the same phenomenon.
It looks as if SN doesn’t want to sell tickets, very strange... worrying or just a simple bug in the booking engine?

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2020
I think he simply means that if your position wasn't already the strongest, the Corona story definitely will not help neither
