Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future

According to the original plans of 2016, the so called "pier A West" would be an extension of the current existing pier A, in a straight line (where the Ryanair and Easyjet planes are parked now). I don't know if the plans for pier C still exist. This would be a pier, parallel with the cur...

Re: Where will you fly in 2018 ?

A daytrip is always worth it IMHO, as André said there are always activities to find, be it just for a coffee or a spotting session at the airport... When you take for example the FR morning flight CRL-BGY, lot of people fly back in the same evening after enjoying some time in Bergamo, so it's not ...

Re: Ryanair in 2015

Dear all, I work for a local television station. Can some luchtzakkers tell me if the 380 will pass the Kempen or Mechelen area during its approach? And will it be visible in case of sunny weather? And around what time...?
