Liège Airport, long known for its mix of cargo and limited passenger operations, has now ceased regular commercial passenger flights. According to airport records, as of the evening of 4 January 2026, no scheduled passenger services are operating at the Belgian airport. This follows an earlier announcement by TUI fly Belgium that it would end all passenger flights from Liège, with the final scheduled service operated on 4 January 2026 after more than 30 years of operations from the field.
The last flight, TB2681 operated by Boeing 737-800 with tail number OO-JAQ, took off from Liège to Tangier at 17:20. The return flight from Tangier, TB2662, had Brussels as its destination.
TUI’s decision to withdraw was driven by ongoing profitability challenges and limited potential to improve commercial performance at Liège, prompting the tour carrier to relocate aircraft and capacity to more commercially viable bases.
Liège Airport—which remains one of Europe’s largest air cargo hubs and a significant centre for freight operations—will continue its core cargo services. Passenger traffic in recent years had been small relative to cargo volumes, and the exit of TUI marks a structural shift, effectively ending Liège’s role in regular scheduled passenger travel.
