Travelling can be really fun. However, it does require a bit of preparation. Naturally, you always aim to plan your trip as efficiently as possible. It is important to take the right travel documents with you. Or to know which luggage you are allowed to take. Moreover, it is best to arrive at the airport on time.
Prepare your trip with us and leave your stress at home!
The compulsory travel documents depend on your destination. Therefore, please check carefully what you need before departure. Make sure to check if for your destination a COVID-19 certificate is mandatory. Next to the digital version we advise you to also bring a printed version. Discover what is applicable for your destination here.
Also don’t forget to bring your identity card or a Kids-ID. Be sure to apply for these Kids-IDs at your local municipality ahead of time. For travel outside the Schengen area you need a passport. Depending on your destination, you may also need a visa, vaccination certificate and ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation).
Finally, we recommend that you always arrive on time. Would you like to know what time it is for your flight? Give here your flight number and we will tell you what time you should be at the airport.
So, you are now ready to prepare your next trip. Do you still have questions? Ask them at BRUce or via Whatsapp. You will receive an answer as soon as possible.
The amount of luggage you can take with you depends on the airline and the type of ticket you bought. The maximum weight is always mentioned on your ticket. The dimensions of your hand luggage are also determined by the airline and can sometimes differ. Be sure to check this in advance on the airline's website.
If you need a wheelchair or crutches to get to the plane, they can be taken on board. Parents with children up to four years old may take a foldable buggy with them to the gate. The buggy is then put in the hold of the aircraft together with the luggage.
In addition to your checked-in luggage, you may generally take one item of hand luggage on board. Remember that this bag or trolley bag must fit in the aircraft's overhead compartment or under the seat in front of you. Liquids and gels may be carried in bottles of no more than 100 ml, packed in a resealable plastic bag with a maximum capacity of 1 litre.
Make sure fragile items are properly protected and your electrical appliances, such as laptops, tablets, cameras, etc. are stored in your hand luggage. Arrange them in a way so that you can get them out quickly at the security screening and do not place any other objects on them.
We advise you to prepare your flight extra carefully. Brussels Airport has a Travel Planner, a handy tool to prepare your trip. Take a look and travel with peace of mind.
