More than 1.5 million passengers at Brussels Airport in January

Almost 60,000 tonnes of freight transported

Brussels Airport recorded more than 1.5 million passengers in January, an 8% rise compared to the same period in 2024. The start of the month, which coincided with the second week of the Christmas holidays, saw a higher number of passengers arriving than departing. The national demonstration on 13 January had a negative impact on passenger numbers. The total amount of cargo carried grew by 8%, amounting to almost 60,000 tonnes.
Passenger numbers: up +8% compared to January 2024
 
In January 2025, Brussels Airport welcomed 1,518,032 passengers, an 8% increase compared to January 2024. However, the national demonstration on 13 January, which unfortunately disrupted flights, had a negative impact on passenger numbers. Difficult winter conditions also affected traffic, particularly to the UK and Ireland.
 
The second week of the Christmas holidays saw a greater number of passengers arriving than departing at the start of the month. Furthermore, the proportion of passengers transferring to their holiday destination was over 17% in January, a percentage represented mainly by passengers to or from Africa and North America.
 
The 10 most visited countries in January were, respectively, Spain, Germany, Italy, Morocco, Switzerland, Türkiye
, the United States, France, the United Kingdom and Portugal.
 
Air freight volumes: +11% compared to January 2024
 
Total cargo volumes through Brussels Airport rose by 8% in January compared to January 2024 to reach 59,385 tonnes. Air cargo volumes also saw a 11% increase, reaching a total of 51,526 tonnes.
 
The full-freight segment grew by almost 4%. Belly cargo increased by 9%, partly due to the increase in passenger flights. Integrator services increased by 20% compared to January 2024, while trucked volumes fell by 9%.
 
The primary import regions are Asia, Africa and North America. Asia remains the leading export region, followed by Africa and North America.
 
Flight movements: up +7% compared to January 2024
 
There were 14,457 aircraft movements in January, up 7% compared to the same month in 2024. The number of passenger flights saw a 6% increase. The number of cargo flights increased by 14% compared to the same period in 2024.
 
On average, there were 131 passengers per flight, 2.3% more than in January 2024. This number remains high thanks to the use of larger aircraft and improved load factors.
