Jet may start direct flights between Mumbai and Brussels
Mumbai, Nov 7 (UNI)

Private carrier Jet Airways may soon be launching a direct flight between Mumbai and Brussels to tap the huge passenger traffic between India and Europe.
 A decision regarding the flight services will be taken soon and expected to be announced ‘in the next few weeks’, a top Belgian official has said.
 ‘‘We had a very effective talk with Jet top officials in Mumbai today where plans regarding the flight were also discussed,’’ Secretary of State Vincent Van Quickenborne told reporters here on the sidelines of the inaugration function of Belgian visa application centre.
 When contacted Jet Airways Executive Director Saroj Datta declined to comment on the issue.
 Earlier, during the Annual General Meeting, Jet Airways Chairman Naresh Goyal told shareholders that the airline plans to connect several European destinations and the share from the International revenues would be close to 40 per cent of Jet’s revenues in the next couple of years.
 About the trade relation between India and Belgium, Van Quickenborne said the direct trade between both the countries have crossed USD one billion last year and ‘‘Belgium is the third most favoured investment destination for Indian companies after US and UK.’’
 Vincent is touring India along with the country’s PM and deputy PM on a ‘‘mission’’ of attracting investments from India.
 ‘‘Apart from the diamond industry, Indian companies can also invest in other sectors like pharma and infotech. During our meeting with the Indian prime minister, we offered our expertise in newer energy systems,’’ he said.

Did you know

Jet Airways will fly to Belgium. sooner or later because Sabena Technics does the line maintenance for them even as of now

And i presume Jet flies to USA because it has confirmed its 777-3.. orders and started their payment or will start soon.

9W management must have told Boeing that if they are not cleared for the US then they might cancel their orders. This is a very common thing that takes place. And Boeing must have got the matters of security cleared for 9W and needless to say Jet must have heavily bribed many people in the US authorities.

So this is one of the ander ki baat. I am sur of this bcos this is quite a old tactic

I highly doubt that Jet Airways Bribed anyone in the Department of Homeland Security and DOT....responsible for clearing it's name. 

Although I would not be surprised if Boeing leaned on teh govt a little to speed up things.  But i have full confidence 9W is innocent.

I know i might be too young to say this hence my apologies.

But maybe you dont seem to know about these airline politics. I have read some articles on these type of cases. Also have spoken to many people into the field directly and indirectly.

I have no personal problems against 9W starting flights to the US. But such things are quite common. Money really talks a lot. This talk would have never managed to go forward until 2050 also. Money can influence all of them.

Do you think VJM can be given a "donation" of flying intl even before he completes 5 yrs? Nah its only money. 9W and even S2 have literally "paid" for getting intl routes of their choice. Or else they would have been flying to Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bhutan (they do fly these routes ofcourse). Their intl wud have been restricted to such routes only.

It is clear that a process which charged 9W against involvment with a person in UN's Wanted List and banned them from flying into their country and all of a sudden you wake up to a news that they are cleared to fly US and charges have yet not been publicly declared out that 9W is not a threat.

Humble apologies for being rude to you vmgopal

Can you find a link between 9W flying  to Belgium and you pointing out abt Sabena Technics and Boeing's aircrafts confirmed if 9W gets to fly USA?

---

Hey have buddies at Sabena Technics......

And what link are you looking at

If

Sabena Technics: Belgium --> 9W gets a easier go into Belgium

Then

Boeing:USA -->9W pressurizes boeing to ask US govt to allow them into the US.

Hope this made it clear
