My guess is that, during these extremely difficult times for the airline industry, that Brussels will fail or allowed to fail. If much larger airlines such as Lufthansa need handouts, there are signs that a re-build will take place from the post COVID-19 ashes a few years down the road. Not they are a bad airline (I have flown them several times) but the market is in just too turbulent times for them, IMHO, to survive. They may be re-invented in some way with new ownership down the road but until then, , , , sad times.

Plenty of room for them to clean up. Still have a bit of a colonial mindset in servicing West and Central Africa.

Brussels airlines has a good chance to survive, if... you get rid of government and labor union interference. The two things that killed SABENA and SOBELAIR. Zaventem, Brussels airport is also complicated. It is situated in the Flemish speaking part but Brussels is manly in the hands of French speaking (left wing ) politicians. Get the picture, it is indeed a mess.

After seeing your reply, you are very optimistic in saying they have a good chance to survive based in the "baggage" you have mentioned. I sense something will rise from the dust in a few years.
