UPDATE 23/03/2016 5 pm

Brussels Airport extends its deepest sympathy to the friends and relatives of the victims of the explosions in the departures hall on Tuesday.

Following these attacks, there will be no passenger flights into and out of Brussels Airport today and tomorrow Thurday 24 March.

Because the forensic investigation is still underway, we currently have no access to the building. Until we can assess the damage, it remains unclear when we can resume operations.
Passengers who have lost or had to leave their baggage at the airport yesterday are requested to register with their airline.

If your baggage was not yet checked in, please fill in the Lost & Found form. As we still do not have access to the terminal, it may take a while before you get feedback about your belongings.

Brussels Airlines passengers who have checked in their luggage at a foreign airport and were unable to retrieve their luggage upon arrival in Brussels on Tuesday, we kindly ask you to file a missing baggage report here. Please use token BRUMAR22 to complete your report.
