The history of Brussels Airlines' hub system dates back to its establishment in 2006. The airline was formed through a merger of two Belgian airlines, SN Brussels Airlines and Virgin Express. Since then, Brussels Airlines has grown steadily and expanded its route network, necessitating the development of a hub system to manage its operations effectively.
The hub system allows Brussels Airlines to consolidate its flights, streamline connections, and optimize its resources. By operating through a hub system, the airline can offer a wider range of destinations and more frequent flights, providing greater flexibility and convenience for travelers.
