The Belgian Lufthansa subsidiary announces the end of its “Corona break”. The carrier intends to gradually resume flight operations from June 15, 2020.

Brussels Airlines is back after a break of around 12 weeks: From June 15, flight operations will be gradually restarted. This is done with constant consideration of the market situation. At the end of August, 59 travel destinations in 33 countries should then be available.

The summer flight schedule was restricted and adapted according to the circumstances. Ultimately, only 30 percent of the originally planned flight program in Europe and 40 percent of the long-haul program can be implemented. Expressed in numbers, that is 240 weekly flights, as they say.

In Europe, a total of 45 destinations in 20 countries are served, including Spain, Portugal, Greece, Italy, France and Denmark. On its long-haul network, the airline will fly to 13 of the 17 African airports, if the governments allow it. In addition, New York-JFK is to be resumed. A new destination, which should be inaugurated in March, has not been forgotten. This will only join the network in the course of next year: Montreal in Canada.

“We are very much looking forward to resuming our activities and welcoming our passengers and some of our employees again. We take all measures to protect you in the best possible way during your trip with us. This summer we will start small to follow market demand, but we plan to expand our network from September as demand rises again and restrictions are lifted. We hope that by the end of this year we will be able to offer 50 percent of the flight schedule that we were aiming for before the crisis broke out, ”said CEO Dieter Vranckx
