Actually, SABENA stands for sauf accident, bien entendu, nous arriverons.

SABENA used to be known as the least expensive and worst western Europen carrier: old planes, chewy & tasteless beef stew, etc. But its economy is on a par with the rest of w. europe now (in large part because the rest of the airlines have lowered their standards).

Best part of the flight is hearing the announcements in Dutch, which is known among linguists as the Chinese of European languages.
