Luchtvaartdag Brussels Airport 2017

Post by pitrixplanespotting »

Hello,

Yesterday, (22 April 2017) it was ‘luchtvaartdag’ at Brussels Airport.
The weather was good, especially in the late afternoon.
You had the central hub and you could choose the Brussels Airport, Brussels Airlines or TUI tour.
We chose the TUI tour.

- Well organized. Clear information where to park your car and where to go.
- A lot of Police officers, security and etc.
- Lot of Stands with information about every aspect of the airport:
Loading cargo plane, Fire truck, de-icing truck, snowplough, belgocontrol, Belgian Air Force, Bird Control…

TUI program
We need to say that the TUI headquarters wasn't very interesting to visit... Just the maintanence hangar was nice ;)
