Brussel Airport


Yesterday 11 May 2018 we went to Brussel Airport (Belgium). In 2017 the airport handled 24 million passengers. You can see the hole fleet of Brussels Airlines (home carrier), but also some nice Asian Airliners, like Thai Airways (Thailand), Cathay Pacific Airways (Hong Kong) and Hainan Airlines (China). Since this year there are two spotters facilities. We missed only a toilet and a garbage can.



From Google Maps I copied the map with the places where we have been. (The yellow circles) All pictures in this post are made from the circle on the right.

Touchdown… a smokey landing of this Ryanair, Boeing 737. Ryanair is the biggest low cost airliner in Europe. All over Europe they base aircrafts, also at Brussel.

JA806A All Nippon Airways -Boeing 787-8
Another Boeing 787-8 (Dreamliner). This time from All Nippon Airways from Japan. The Boeing 787-8 (210-250 seats) is a twin engine aircraft, this plane only flies on the not so busy service lines. When there is more traffic they use the Boeing 787-9 (290-310 seats) or the Boeing 777-300 (370 seats)

G-EMBN bmi Regional -Embraer 145
This jungle jet (Embraer = Brazilian) from bmi Regional (British) is all white. Normally a picture of a all white aircraft is boring, but not with this background. In the background you see the village Steenokkerzeel.
