That’s how the new Sabena/Dat will be named from now on. The reason for the abbreviation of SN is to save money for a new paintjob :+

RE: SN Brussels Airlines
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-02-02 AT 09:09Â AM (GMT)]The SN code is still used for DAT flights into Britain, I’m glad to see the code at least is the same. At first they switched to QG code, but changed it back again.
What about this merger thing with Virgin Express? That was in the UK news up until New Year, but we never hear anything about it any more.
Will SN Brussels Airlines ever be confused in name with Brussels International Airlines, or has that airline gone the way of Sabena and CityBird?
I truly hope this new airline will succeed, and provide jobs for those who lost their jobs when Sabena went bankrupt, I felt really sorry for all the staff I saw on TV, who were in tears, they were the people I encountered in Brussels airport back in September, and they were always polite and efficient. May they all find work in the near future.
It is a shame I will not be able to try this new airline (this year at least), my VLM flights are now booked and confirmed and I cannot change them.
Thank you to Frank and Benjamin MG for rating me
Fly with proper Belgian airlines.:-)

Are we gonna c the RJ100’s at NM antime soon cos i’m getting fed up with the same fleet of Bmi EMB-145’s and BAe J41’s – they must count for over half of all airliner movements at NM as 4 of each type are operated from here

And to retain the ICAO code!
Btw, the colours should be dark blue and orange…
