Air Belgium retires last Airbus A330-200F
Air Belgium (KF, Brussels Charleroi) retired its last A330-200F in mid-October 2023, ch-aviation research has revealed.
OO-SEA (msn 1594) completed its last long-term ACMI contract for Air France at the end of September. It flew its final single cargo charter from Marseilles to N'Djamena and return on October 5, Flightradar24 ADS-B data shows. It was then ferried from Brussels National to Châteauroux Déols Marcel Dassault on return to the lessor on October 16.
The aircraft was the last of four ex-Qatar Airways freighters operated by Air Belgium under a CMI deal with French logistics giant CMA CGM. The other three were already moved to the firm's in-house carrier CMA CGM Air Cargo.
The airline's cargo fleet comprises two A330-200(P2F)s and three B747-8Fs (of which one is parked for maintenance). It also operates two A330-200s and two A330-900s. The carrier is currently in judicial restructuring after exiting its "chronically unprofitable" scheduled passenger operations.
