United Airlines second daily flight between Newark and Brussels, operating exclusively during the summer season, has been labeled as not ideal by Brussels Airlines CEO, Dorothea Von Boxberg in a press conference earlier today. The 
Lufthansa Group, 
United Airlines and 
Air Canada have all partnered up to create a transcontinental hub connecting North America with Africa via Brussels. The venture takes advantage of Brussels Airlines ever-strengthening Africa-bound network, and leverages transatlantic connections from the US and Canada.
