Has anyone flown this airline? they fly direct to Brussels from JFK and seem to be associated with United?
Thanks
Yes, we flew Brussels Airlines from Brussels to Chicago in June. The plane and services were on par with United Airlines, no better, no worse. All went well.
Yes, Brussels Airlines is a member of the Star Alliance, which means you can book the trip on United, which is what I would do. It's a bit more energy getting a seat assignment and you need both a UA booking code as well as a Bru. booking code. BUT the advantage is if for some reason you have to cancel, the funds go back onto your UA account good for a year.
it's more than a member of Star Alliance - it's the Belgian subsidiary of Lufthansa
