Brussels Airport has been experiencing significant delays at passport control for passengers arriving from non-EU countries on Wednesday, with waiting times reaching around two hours. A four-hour delay has even been reported.
This issue affects travellers from non-Schengen areas, including the UK. The airport confirmed the delays after complaints surfaced online, noting that this is not the first time such congestion has occurred.
The airport has previously faced similar issues with passport control, leading to long queues on arrivals as well as on departures. It blames the Federal Police for the delays.
