The system's transatlantic services, from New York to Brussels by way of Shannon, are of the same general three-type flights as the others, the air-sleeper service de grande classe being called, in this case, the Royal Sabena First class and tourist class have the same distinctions as previously described One type of service is Sabena's very special own, the world's first international helicopter network, now tying Brussels to several near-by cities across, Belgium's frontiers.
Sports to be practiced include golf, at Brussels, Antwerp and several coastal resorts; fishing, along the coast, in the Scheldt basin and in the streams of the Ardennes, whose swift waters are favored by trout; hunting (deer, wild boars, rabbits, pheasants, partridges); canoeing on many meandering streams and placid waterways (consult Brussels Kayak Club, 66 boulevard d'Ypres, Brussels); yachting along the coast, and—a novelty to most of us—land yachting on the smooth Belgian beaches, especially near La Panne, in the "far corner" of Belgium. The Tourist Office can supply literature on Belgium's sport possibilities, especially for hunting and fishing. |
