Departing from Brussels South, passengers first land at Fort-de-France in Martinique before flying on to Guadeloupe. From Pointe-\u00e0-Pitre, the aircraft flies directly back to Belgium. Flights depart from Brussels mid-morning to facilitate passengers arriving by public transport.<\/p>\n<p>While the route is primarily aimed at leisure customers, business passengers and travel groups are also catered for. <strong>incentive<\/strong> will find an in-flight and ground product that meets the highest service standards. Air Belgium's aircraft is an Airbus A340 equipped with three classes. Depending on the configuration of the aircraft, business class has 18 or 32 seats, premium economy class from 13 to 21 seats and economy class from 212 to 264 seats.<\/p>\n<p>In business class, the seat transforms into a veritable two-metre bed. It also incorporates a power strip and reading light. In Premium Economy, the distance between rows is 91.5 cm, and the seat reclines to 180\u00b0. Each seat has a video screen with several programmes, and the price includes hold baggage and a meal.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Air Belgium launched a direct service between Brussels South and <strong>Hong Kong<\/strong> but suspended flights a few months after the arrival of the company <strong>Cathay Pacific<\/strong> on the Brussels National-Hong Kong route.<\/p>\n<p>As for the<strong>Brussels South-Charleroi airport<\/strong>For both business and high-spending customers, it offers access to a <strong>exhibition<\/strong> before departure, which also includes a passage <strong>fast-track<\/strong> priority for identity and security checks. The company believes it will be able to attract customers not only from Belgium, but also from Northern and Eastern France, with <strong>shuttle services from Brussels, Lille, Luxembourg and Metz<\/strong>. The airport can also be reached by direct bus from Charleroi Sud station.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This winter, the cities of Fort-de-France and Pointe-\u00e0-Pitre will be
