The View opening last year, the demise of that hateful 20-year old "under construction" sign on the way to the pit of hell that is now - finally - the old car rental center.... I'm going to look forward to my next trips. What else is new in 2027?
If you mean 2026, the new drop-off will open around October.
I wasn't expecting more than one major innovation per year, but if this is this year.... so be it.
Though not a fan of the concept, however willing to see it in practice before final judgement.

Is there any timing for the reopening of The Loft in Pier A?
"At the end of the summer" sounds quite vague..
The temporary pop-up loft is ridiculously small and almost always overcrowded...

Just inventing excuses for when things go wrong.
No anticipation.
No action plans for when things go wrong.
No care for passengers.

Extreme long queues and hours of waiting times (HOURS...) at immigration remain standard at BRU.
As can be seen at aviation24 home page the flemish government is also very upset about the lack of action.
It is a pure scandal.
BRU is a real Calimero airport.

When you give a comment, you need to give the correct content. The Flemish government is asking the federal minister of mobility to solve the case by foreseeing more than enough police for the border control.
This was explained already in the past to you by member Conti767.

BRU is asking THIS ALREADY FOR YEARS.

Just anecdotal, last Wednesday I picked up a friend arriving with UA950 during the morning wave of long haul arrivals. The 77W landed at 07h15 and my friend with all his luggage stepped in the car at 08h00.

Maybe 20 minutes extra for PAX with luggage...

Calimero fits you.

"we have to wait extreme long queues and that ain't fair"
