CEO of Ostend-Bruges Airport Eric Dumas said: “At the moment there are five departures a week to Doha, as well as two transatlantic connections to the JFK airport in New York and to Pittsburgh (PIT). Ostend-Bruges Airport will also be the arrival airport for a weekly service from Dhaka, two from Mexico City, one from Doha and two others from Chicago.”

All of the Qatar Airways cargo flights are handled by BCube Air Cargo Belgium, who have been active since 2019 as an airport handler at Ostend-Bruges Airport and have proven to provide top quality and an efficient service.

“We keep investing in the future”

CEO of Ostend-Bruges Airport, Eric Dumas added: “We are a multidimensional airport. In addition to cargo, we also have passenger flights. We are happy with the cargo developments at the airport. Our airport and partners have proven their flexibility, quality and customer friendliness. We are satisfied that the efforts are paying off and we continue to invest in the future.”

Our airport has great assets to further develop its cargo activities in the near future. Next to the strategic position of the airport at the Belgian coast, we as a regional airport are very flexible; 24/7 operational. Next to that we have all necessary facilities for all types of cargo flights such as large cooling facilities for perishables, stables for horses and large warehouses.
