As the national airport located in the heart of Europe, Brussels Airport is the ideal gateway to Brussels, Belgium, and the rest of the world. At the same time, Brussels Airport is a city in itself—buzzing with activity, innovation, and engagement.
Our employees are passionate about the airport, and this enthusiasm translates into exceptionally customer-friendly service, infused with typical Belgian hospitality. Businesses are eager to establish themselves here, drawn by the sense of Belgian pride that Brussels Airport promotes on an international scale. Brussels Airport offers a unique experience for everyone!
The numbers speak for themselves: Brussels Airport is one of the most important airports in Europe. Yet, despite ongoing expansions and infrastructure investments, we maintain a remarkably personal approach. We remain an airport with a distinctly human touch, always attentive to individual needs. Whether it’s a passenger, business, supplier, or partner—the customer always comes first.
We constantly look ahead and think beyond conventional services. Our role as an intermodal hub is a prime example. By aligning all modes of transport, we actively improve accessibility and attract foreign companies. This has given rise to an Airport Business District, where growing activity is creating new employment opportunities
The National Bank of Belgium recognizes the airport industry as “an essential sector that plays a key role in the Belgian economy.” We are the second most important growth driver in the country and hold a significant responsibility for national prosperity and well-being. To illustrate: the airport generates 60,000 direct and indirect jobs, supported by both commercial flights and leading international cargo operations.
The environment and the well-being of local residents are at the core of our strategy. We strive to strike a careful balance between economic growth and minimal environmental impact. Our commitment is evident through initiatives such as CO₂ neutrality, an in-house water purification plant, solar panel parks, noise mitigation measures, and biodiversity projects. Brussels Airport proudly positions itself as a responsible player.
