Re: BRU Summer 2025: news, new routes, airlines

Concerning the 11th a330, there will be no other destination added but rather a consolidation of the network. More frequencies, less triangular flight. Nairobi and Accra will be served daily, Dakar and Abidjan will have on some days direct flight. The new A330 will bring 5 extra weekly flight in th...

I fully agree on that. Be proud that we have an airline with very nice liveries.

Maybe next time it would be great if they can do it on an A330.

Re: BRU Summer 2025: news, new routes, airlines

Royal trade missions do not automatically translate into new flights (where are MEL, SYD, KIX...). Indian "consultants" and their families travel home every two years on average. Many will bring relatives over every summer, typically parents. Nevertheless, it takes a very significant numb...

Thanks.
So, back to Léon Verhallen short list with AI and Delhi for instance. India is a potential spot, isn't ?
Ohh yes, India is a place you have to be. Strong connections with diamonds.

India will be another royal trade mission

Hi, one year ago indeed you were talking about 2 or 3 new long haul airlines for 2024 and 2025. Thai was a big guess. Was Latam yet part of these projects ? Thanks. LATAM was in the picture but also still another one Was? Or still is? Thx I'm talking about that time that it was in the picture. Toda...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal

As of today, the oldest 333 would be due for replacement from 2030 onwards. Questionable also the size needed/ planned, as the 789 would be similar to the 333 in size, which may be an advantage on thin routes. If you mean size by number of pax yes, but what is important is cargo. Cargo has a much h...

TUI Fly will start next Summer the route to Split from BRU. But Montego Bay, Larnaca, Ponta Delgada, Varna, Thessaloniki, Tunis and Samos are removed. Among other frequency decreases.

The opposite: ONLY Alicante and Malaga on sale for now. Other destinations tbc at a later moment! Exactly. They will gradually add more flights. I think it's not a bad idea. This Summer was a disaster for them regarding maintenance during peak moments. Broken planes, not having spare planes etc. BR...
