Sabena et Finnair: accord de code-sharing

Article Abstract:

The Belgian airline, Sabena, and the Finnish airline Finnair have signed a code sharing agreement concerning all flights operated by the two companies between Brussels and Helsinki (currently 4 per day during the week, and 2 per day at weekends), as well as on the majority of flights operated between Brussels and Stockholm (currently 1 per day, this should rise to 5 per day under the code share agreement). The agreement is effective from September 1998. The Scandinavian passengers will henceforth be linked to 73 European destinations, and 27 intercontinental destinations. A spokesmen for Sabena has revealed that Scandinavian business travellers use the Sabena network primarily for travel to Southern European destinations. Sabena and Finnair (together with Swissair and Austrian Airlines) are already linked under the 'Qualiflyer' loyalty programme. Sabena has already signed code-sharing agreements with 14 other companies.

BBL confirme sa nouvelle strat gie/

Article Abstract:

In a move to conquer additional market shares, BBL is to reinforce the skills of its call centres through allowing them to handle stock market operations and other operations. The Belgian retail banking network will also double the number of its automating teller machines to 1,200 units while the conventional units should be increased to 1,050 from 950 today in the country. The 100 units to be created will consist in convenience units limited to current operations plus a self banking service. On the other hand, the 'full service', conventional network which covers the whole scope of financial, insurance and banking operations, will be maintained to today's level of 543 units. By doing so, the bank wants to better meet the clientele's demand, which has been evolving to an increased automation to the detriment of the traditional visit to a bank agency.
