Nothing at all wrong with FRA. I've transited it several times and so have various others on this forum. What is your point?

And has it occured to you that BRU is as good a transit point as any for traffic that's primarily india to US .. and is far cheaper than FRA or CDG?

With the range of the 772s that AI is taking delivery on (and I've heard it said AI is lining up for the 787 Dreamliners as well), the utility of a "European hub" seems to be dropping fast.

Now, if I could only figure out why 9W insists on using Brussels as a hub (aside from the fact that it is not a high-traffic hub)...
