Post What changes to BRU schedules post Sabena??

It might be interesting to start a thread listing all changes to other airlines' schedules to Brussels to compensate for lost sabena flights.

Other threads have reported on extra British European and BMI flights and destinations.

What else??? For example, are Lufthansa thinking of upgrading their flight schedules and adding destinations (eg: Stuttgart)???

For today, Lufthansa have even downgraded their equipment for the lack of highloaders at BRU, but have added an eighth service to FRA.

Dutch TV report stating this evening that KLM is increasing flights between AMS-BRU from 5 to 7 a day, using larger equipment. Which type wasn't mentioned.
