read this and I must admit if there's a price for the biggest LOSER award that will be BRU airport
downsizing aircrafts, cancelled routes, no new airliners, downsizing frequency, less passengers....
( ok the terror attacks where here an issue, but the problems where before this )
keep up the good job BRU (cynical)

Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines
Let me explain, I love BRU airport but I need to admit I'am not a frequent traveller but my family does. but I'am the one who needs to book their tickets for asia.
I love aviation and I love reading this website and I'am checking everyday the section Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines hoping for.... yes hoping for more new routes, bigger aircrafts some more new airliners. but since the terror attacks it seems ( ok its not BRU fault) that in my feeling every airliner abroad is showing their back to us in downsizing, leaving the airport ( ex: Jet Airways), Belgium politic seems doing their best to bullying passengers, strikes of traffic controllers, strikes of police ... you need to understand my frustration.
like the newstopic of AMS that is getting a award, I must admit AMS is very attractive for other airliners and they seems to attract every airliners they want.
Aeromexico, XIamen airliners, Qatar upgrading to 777, A350 Singapore Airlines launch route to AMS, Emirates sending their A380 twice daily, hub for Delta, hub for Jet... several exiting news for them and BRU is in my feeling becoming a regional airport left with peanuts
don't understand me wrong these is my frustration to write about it. BRU is not sexy- BRU is becoming a regional airport.
and again I don't want to offend anyone thus this is comparing apples with oranges.
conclusion I'am a bit jealous

Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines
I think one needs to be reasonable - Brussels will never be AMS, CDG or FRA, and can't really compete with any of them - it is, like you say, a regional airport with some international connections, and perhaps it's best that way. I am being intentionally provocative.chineseboy wrote:Let me explain, I love BRU airport but I need to admit I'am not a frequent traveller but my family does. but I'am the one who needs to book their tickets for asia.

First of all AMS has KLM...and BRU has SN...I guess they could compete.. in a far future IF SN is ambitious !

Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines
I noticed that Ethiopia change their route today to ADD-BRU-CDG!
Hasta la victoria siempre.
Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines
For as far as I know, ET will operate more triangles in the future, either ADD-CDG-BRU-ADD or ADD-BRU-CDG-ADD. ET using in Europe the SN strategy in Africalumumba wrote:I noticed that Ethiopia change their route today to ADD-BRU-CDG!

Means they put Brussels in first place
If SN is still code sharing with them than it's good for the transit pax.
But from June it's back to normal 5xweek ADD-CDG-BRU-CDG-ADD.
Hasta la victoria siempre.

Re: BRU Summer 2016: news, new routes, airlines
My bet for the aircraft: Thomas Cook (UK or Scandinavia) A330 or Condor 767.

Air Nostrum (a regional airline from Spain) revised its planned new seasonal offering from Vigo, which will now serve Paris CDG rather than Brussels on 07 July 2016. Operating as Iberia Regional (Spain), this route will be served with CRJ900 aircraft.
