Brussels Airport Sees Best Month Since Pandemic as Morocco Flights Resume

Brussels Airport has announced that June was its best month. In total, 646,589 people traveled through Brussels-National Airport. A good performance recorded since the start of the health crisis in March 2020. Compared to June 2019, this figure represents a 73% decrease.

Attendance "gradually increased throughout the month, from 19% the first week to 35% the last week," reports Belga. Departing passengers are more numerous than arriving passengers. The most popular destinations are: Spain and Portugal - largely turned red since -, Italy, Greece, Turkey or France.

These results were achieved thanks to the introduction of new flights by Brussels Airlines, the lifting of the air exclusion zone in Morocco in mid-June and the start of the holidays.
