Brussels Airport receives record 5.2 million passengers in the first quarter
Brussels Airport achieved an all-time record of more than 5.2 million passengers in the first quarter of 2018. Long haul and transfer traffic in particular have risen sharply due to the considerable expansion of Brussels Airport's intercontinental network in the past year. Total cargo tonnage at the airport increased by 2.3% in the first quarter compared to the same period last year, owing to a sharp increase in belly cargo and trucked air cargo.
