The airline company Brussels Airlines is enlarging her long distance fleet with two new Airbus A330 planes. The airline is planning to start up a new connection from Brussels-Toronto and to extend its networki to Africa (Rwanda, Uganda, Nigeria and Gabon) and to the United States (Washington DC and Newark). In a more distant future, the company has also raised the possibility of flights to India. The new routes will create at least 140 new jobs, mainly pilots and stewards but also in catering services, check-in points, luggage handling and in airplane maintenance.
