How come BRU seems to be the only one impacted ?
Its snowing everywhere
My messages reflect my personal opinion which may be different than yours. I beleive a forum is made to create a debate so I encourage people to express themselves, the way they want, with the ideas they want. I expect the same understanding in return.

It looks like they just cleared RWY19 and opened it for landing (braking action medium)
I guess visibility/ceiling was not sufficient to continue landings on 07L and they had to revert to a more suitable runway (ILS equipped) wich probably was not treated on time. But that's a guess
I'd figure that when your airport has 1 flight per hour your winter team has access to the runway for snow sweeping.
CRL arrivals : 1549 - 1620 - 1714 - 1740
Suppose BRU had to focus on maintaining one RWY active (it remained open for DEP).
Also looks like this is wet snow, falling on ground that is below freezing temp. No fun.
Probably the ILS critical areas would need to be swept as well though arrivals should remain on 07's for a while hence no ILS.

Stuck in BCN. late evening flight to BRU cancelled. No idea on solution yet: SN will look for extra BCN flight tomorrow if they find a plane. Flight was nearly full so a lot of people to take care of. Keep you posted.

Update Brussels Airport 20:40: At the moment, 130 flights are cancelled. Check your flight info online before coming to the airport. We’re installing beds and distributing food and water. Winter teams are working hard to clear a second runway.
