CO60 EWR BRU arrived 6h28 late this morning 19-Jan. Yesterday's outbound flight departed 3h40 late from BRU with the same aircraft #57. Any news what caused these huge delays ? (technical issues with the a/c) ?

Today, I noticed on BRU-website that HXL is using an A330-200 for their flight to Dominican Republic:

17/09 07:45 Puerto Plata HXL 341 10:33 332
via Punta Cana

Anyone who knows more about this aircraft or has pics ?
Thx !

@ Vesalius: I noticed the special "glare" night light effect on that runway picture... is this a special add-on you have to get that effect ? Thx !

But even if they are not using it as a terminal, I think they should at least renovate the office buidling (the one btw departure hall and C concourse). I can't even imagine that people are still working in that building if you look at its state: it seems like since it has been build, nobody has eve...

Last month I was traveling from Brussels and had to wait at gate B 01, with a very close view on the C terminal and the tower / administration building. It almost shocked me to see how deteriorated these buildings are: missing windows and doors, raw concrete, very dirty, etc. Anyone any ideas if the...

If their comes a 'luchtzak airlines' it has to be a confortable and nice flight!

I think we already have that: SN Brussels Airlines
Just flew them for my citytrip to Florence and I have to say, their service is outstanding ! A real example of how things should be...

I agree that it would be stupid from SN to sit back and relax and see what's happening on the long haul market... Yesterday I've read an article in Trends (Belgian business mag) quoting that the Asian economy is about to boom and airline routes to there are getting very profitable (statement from a ...

If you scroll through all posts, there is one conclusion we can already make: BRU should offer more long-haul destinations in order to be a good business airport and hub. I also totally agree with the fact that SNBA should first of all focus on profitability, but a solid long-haul network would be a...

Sure ! That was already on my mind
I'll post them as soon as possible !

My flights so far:

12/7: Brussels - New York (on Continental - B767-400ER), inbound 18/7
29/7: Brussels - Florence (on SNBA - RJ85), inbound 1/8
24/8: Brussels - Cuba/Varadero (on BelgiumExel - B767-300ER), inbound 4/9

As a regular traveler, BRU just doesn't offer me what I (and most people in our company) need. It lacks the presence of a carrier with global presence and are miles behind with offering direct long haul flights. Currently we have our home carrier SN only flying to Europe and Africa. Hence, if you ne...
