That's true for the Belgians, but for the British it's the opposite!Sabena_690 wrote:The schedules are even better than the one BA currently has: you can leave earlier and return later.

Correct. Flights to ATL (bith DL and BA) depart from LGW, a legacy of the former BR (British Caledonian) which had all its intercontinental flights from LGW. The flight to ATL was once operated by a Sabena B747 BRU-LGW-ATL codeshared with BR.Sabena_690 wrote:Several flights operate from LGW, not from LHR (for example ATL I believe, would have to look it up).
Also some (not all) flights to IAH, DFW, LAS, LAX, PIT leave from LGW.

From the point of view of someone British, those schedules are okay if you wish to fly on days between Monday and Friday, you can leave in the morning from LGW and return in the afternoon from BRU. That's what I always used to do when I flew with Sabena - always out on SN2174 (10.55 departure from MAN to land in BRU at 13.15) and always back on SN2177 (left BRU at 14.45 and landed in MAN at 15.05). Those times suited me down to the ground, better than VG from LCY-BRU.
Sabena and Sobelair - gone but never forgotten.

I just received the September issue of the OAG Executive Flight Guide, and they mention an A319 for SN2121 and an Avro RJ100 for SN2129.OO-VEX wrote:SN2121 is operated with an AVRO RJ85
SN2129 is operated with an AVRO RJ100
This is what i found on the SN Brussels online timetable.
The BIAC timetable mentions that SN2121 is operated with an A319.
Does SN BA expect such a high LF on both flights?
And, of course, no codeshare with BA...
Good luck SN !!!

From what I heard the flights operated by BA (B737's) had approximately 60 people inside.
Since this isn't profitable for a B737 and that BA didn't had the opportunity to make the flight with smaller planes, they decided to stop that route.
But with Avro's the route could be profitbale IF SN manages to have approximately 60 people in its planes. It would have been better if BA would have codeshared the flight Anyway, I just hope the very best for SN
