Brussels Airlines will replace seven of its 10 long-haul aircraft between 2018 and 2019 with Airbus
A330-300 CEO aircraft. The planes will be equipped with new cabins in all three
travel classes: business, economy privilege and economy.
The new planes are replacing A330-200s and older A330-300s.
“Just a few months after the complete acquisition of
Brussels Airlines, Lufthansa, on behalf of the Eurowings Group, takes an
important investment decision, confirming its confidence in the sustainable
future and development of Brussels Airlines in general and its successful
long-haul operations in particular,” said Bernard Gustin, CEO Brussels
Airlines, adding that the purchase is the largest investment project in Brussels
Airlines’ 15-year history.
Brussels flies to New York JFK and Washington Dulles in
the U.S. as well as Toronto.
