Belgium is known for Tintin, for surrealism, Tomorrowland, chocolate and above all… fries, something Brussels Airlines did not offer yet on board, until today. The airline has put fries on its in-flight menu, wíth mayo or ketchup, of course.

The Belgian fries are available on all European flights with a duration of over 2 hours. After the fries, another Belgian specialty will be added to the menu: warm Belgian waffles, which are a big hit among foreign travelers.

Since years Brussels Airlines makes a big effort to be a flying ambassador for Belgium and to introduce the best of Belgium to foreign customers. For the Belgian customers it is a way to make them feel at home, right from the moment they board their flight. Brussels Airlines serves meals of Belgian Michelin starred chefs on its long distance flights and offers Belgian beers, cheeses and chocolate to its customers. Next to that they have dedicated three aircraft liveries to Belgian icons: Tintin, surrealist painter Magritte and the Red Devils (Belgium’s national football team).
