Re: RwandAir & Rwandan Aviation News 2024
Forgot to publish a few days ago, why RwandAir has ended flights to Mumbai. Unsurprisingly, the type of aircraft is not suitable, in terms of comfort (probably also for cargo) or routing (technical stopover in Kenya). The airline will apparently try to find the right device. Apart from the Max or A3...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
No surprised, depsite some people there think ((it's their opinion, i accept that) that SN shoud be a KLM with a huge network in Asia or North America (quick growth for a quick downfall), while Aer Lingus (North America) or Finnair (Asia, USA) are doing great job on their niche markets. It's not the...

Ethiopian orders 8 B777x (alongside of its B777x F order). This is version 777-9. With the A350-1000 order, it is clear that the airline will replace its fleet of B777s (200LR and 300ER) https://bnnbreaking.com/transportation/ethiopian-airlines-bolsters-fleet-with-boeing-777-9-purchase-first-in-africa

Re: RwandAir & Rwandan Aviation News 2024
RwandAir announces the (probably definitely) suspension of its route to Mumbai, from 15 March 2024. It's not really a surprise. Capacity was much lower than before covid.

Re: ASL Airlines Belgium & ASL Aviation Holdings news 2024
They changed a lot, like in... renewing its fleet? Like in ... re-registering all aircraft from OO- to OE- (except the old 737-400 OO-TNN and OO-TNP, the bare minimum to keep "Belgium" in their name). I think ASL Belgium are not the most to complain in the group. ASL France has really cha...

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
Agree with Lux Avi. I think that if SN was with IAG or AF KLM the situation would be probably the same that with Lufthansa : the market demand They are not even great synergies between SN and Turkish Airlines / Egytpair / Ethiopian Airlines to and from Africa while they are in the same alliance (i d...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
Interesting article on Luchtvaartnieuws today. SN would like to receive more A320neo's in the future. They are also looking for the replacement of the A330. The A330neo and B787-9 are in the picture. The A330neo is however not in the current LH group fleet. More chance for the B787-9 I think I woul...

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future
Pretty hard to compare with Asians Airports. Many of them are "brand news". An airport built in 1960s has not the same design that an airport built in 90s, in 2000s or in 2010s**, which is young for an airport. ** Hong Kong Chep Lap Kok, Seoul Icheon, Dubai Al Maktoum, Doha Hamad Airport, ...
