How to get to | Belgium
This is part of a series of blog entries on how to get to countries and places. Here is a link to the index. I plan to eventually cover every country and some other places. If you have a request for a particular country or place please use the email me link at top right, or leave a comment.
Belgium
Belgium is easily reached by train, bus or car. There are also a few ferry services. Many airlines fly to Brussels including:
- Star Alliance - Adria, Austrian, bmi, Continental, Croatia, EgyptAir, LOT, Lufthansa, Swiss, SAS, TAP, Turkish, United, US Airways
- Oneworld - American, British Airways, Finnair, Iberia, Malev, Royal Jordanian
- Sky Team - Aeroflot, Air France, Alitalia, Czech, Delta, KLM
- Other selected - most major European and northern African airlines, most European and northern African low cost airlines (note some fly to Charleroi airport instead of Brussels), Jet Airways (Brussels is a hub for India to North America flights)
TIP Longhaul fares to or from Belgium are not particularly cheap, except for trans-Atlantic.
TIP Intra-europe air fares to & from Belgium are generally low on routes served by low cost airlines and otherwise high. If cheap fares for Brussels have sold out check out nearby airports as well - eg Luxembourg, Amsterdam, Dusseldorf.
UPDATED November 2009 - Continental switch from Sky Team to Star Alliance. No change to advice.
