Brussels Airport

World Bicycle Day This year, on World Bicycle Day, we notice that more colleagues are cycling to work! We are pleased to see an increase of up 25% in bicycle use compared to the same period last year. What explains this trend?  🚲 Our continuous efforts to improve the cycling infrastructure and signage by Provincie Vlaams-Brabant 🚲 Awareness campaigns conducted, together with our airport community, to promote cycling as a sustainable transport option and to encourage employees to commute by bike.  🚲 A bike community has also been created to support all cyclists along their routes and help them find cycling buddies.

‪As bee populations continue to decline, Brussels Airport installed beehives on its grounds a few years ago. Initially, employees with certified beekeeping knowledge took care of the hives but since last year, we’ve partnered with Nectarist professional beekeepers, to support and expand the initiative.‬ 🐝 ‪This collaboration ensures expert care for the bees and a high-quality honey harvest. Thanks to this, 250 personalized jars of honey will be produced this year.‬ 🍯 ‪Employees can also take part in guided harvesting sessions with Nectarist raising awareness around local biodiversity in a hands-on and meaningful way.‬

A first in history! Today, we had the honour of welcoming three rare golden snub-nosed monkeys. These endangered animals travelled with Sichuan Airlines from China to #brusselsairport and then on to Pairi Daiza, as part of an international conservation initiative. This was made possible through a unique partnership with the China Wildlife Conservation Association. Our Animal Care & Inspection Centre ensured a smooth and safe arrival with the highest standards of animal care and logistics. A milestone for both biodiversity preservation and also the strength of cross-border collaboration in protecting vulnerable species. #wearebrusselsairport
