Brussels Airlines to discontinue FRA link

From March 28th, Star Alliance member Brussels Airlines will stop scheduled flights from Brussels to Frankfurt. The carrier currently operates the route on a 6x weekly rotation with B737-300 equipment on the route. The route will be taken over by Lufthansa, which has a controlling stake in the Belgian national airline. Lufthansa currently operates 53 weekly flights and is the only carrier now operating these airport pairs, however Ethopian does operate Frankfurt via Brussels with a technical stop over.
