Welcome to Belgium! Brussels Airport is the gateway to Belgium, that small, but colourful country in the heart of Europe. At the airport, you may already have tasted some of our Belgian treasures such as chocolate, fries and beer and admired Belgian fashion or Antwerp diamonds.
Still, the best way to get to know a place is to explore it for yourself. And that’s one of the benefits of Belgiums small size: everything is within easy travelling distance. You can stand in front of one of our tourist highlights in less than an hour and a half. What’s more, Brussels Airport provides direct rail connections to the major tourist cities.
We are, in a manner of speaking, the first proud ambassador of our country and we’d like to help you on your way with a few tips for places to see in Belgium. We would also like to draw your attention to our partner organisations, the 3 regional tourist agencies.

National industrial action on Wednesday 25 June
What is the situation?
Due to the national industrial action on Wednesday 25 June in which the staff of the security service provider is participating, we unfortunately expect major disruptions to our airport operations on that day.
What does this mean for my flight?
To ensure the safety of passengers and staff, we have decided, in consultation with the airlines, not to operate any departing flights on 25 June. The airlines will contact passengers directly to inform them of their options.
Arriving passenger flights
As departing passenger flights are cancelled, cancellations are also possible on some arriving flights. We advise all passengers to check the status of their flight with their airline or on our website or the app.
The flight overview on our website will show cancellations only once they are registered by the airline.
Public transport
Significant disruption to public transport is expected. Please consult the website of NMBS/SNCB and De Lijn for the latest information regarding their services.
We regret the inconvenience caused by this action.
