At present, travellers to India from Belgium have to take connecting flights from other cities like Paris, Frankfurt or Amsterdam. Next to the Mumbai-Brussels-New York link, Jet Airways also intends to have a stopover at Brussels for the New Delhi-Toronto flight before the end of this year, sources in Jet have said to NDTV Profit.

Would be a great way for 9W to compete with the likes of LH/BA in their backyard Back to top avbuff Member Joined: 22 Dec 2006 Posts: 5031 Posted: Thu Feb 22, 2007 1:52 pm    Post subject: any news abt the DEL - PVG - SFO flights??

Surely not that much demand for India - BRU sectors. Lets see what sort of seats they come up with on their on 77W which I think they will be using. Good news nevertheless.

Does anyone know how the BRU - YYZ loads are ? probably 9W may have a chance to monopolize this route . considering there is no other SEVA on this route .. maybe 9W can have the whole MEWA and give some pieces to SN as well Back to top Birendra Member Joined: 15 Feb 2007 Posts: 1411 Posted: Thu Feb 22, 2007 4:18 pm    Post subject: Nice of Jet to start a JFK flight via BRU.

I have noticed that on the OS flights from VIE to DEL and BOM, majority of the passengers are businessmen/traders from India , connecting from Switzerland and Belgium.. if 9W fares are competitive I am sure this crowd wud prefer 9W.

They receive about 2 B773ER and close to 3 A332 before August.

I guess they will change the livery coz they had hired Landor to do the work. The initial flights of the B773ER would be BOM-LHR is guess.

If it is and I hope their thinking in your lines. it would be good for BOM-YYZ and DEL-NYC pax. Any news on the AMD-LON flt?

Air India's B772LR is next (VT-ALB). That will be out next week. Jet Airways B773ER is cn 627 (VT-JEA) that will take a further couple of weeks probably second week of march. they will be the first operator in india. They get it before Air India. Delivery should be sometime in April so i assume they will do BOM-LHR or BOM-SIN or introduce BOM-HKG as mentioned in earlier posts. They will start USA flights only after they receive two B773ER . The second B773ER is 637 around april end may... Regarding the Landor Branding Exercise.... http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1511016.cms Also they had hired M&C Saatchi to do their international Advertising so i would assume this is to coincide with the introduction of flights to USA..
