Wednesday 27 April saw the 15th edition of the Brussels Airport Aviation Awards ceremony.
Brussels Airport Company continues its annual tradition of presenting the Brussels Airport Aviation Awards. With these awards Brussels Airport wants to honour those airlines and partners who in 2021 have excelled in the areas of punctuality and performance, network development, and safety and environment.
The 12 awards were presented during a live partner event in the Sheraton hotel at the airport.
Brussels Airport has organised the Aviation Awards since 2007. In 2021 there was an adapted edition with only Cargo Awards as in 2020 the passenger airlines and partners were strongly affected by the Covid crisis.
