In February 2026, total cargo volumes handled at Brussels Airport reached 63,050 tonnes, up 6.5% compared to February 2025.
Flown cargo increased by 7.2%, once again driven by growth in cargo transported on passenger flights (+7.8%) and strong performance in the integrator segment (+12.1%), which combines air transport with final delivery.
After a decline in January, the full-freighter segment, based on dedicated cargo flights, returned to growth, recording an increase of 0.6%.
Road cargo volumes also increased, rising by 3.3%.
This positive evolution across all cargo segments reflects the strength of Brussels Airport’s positioning as a leading cargo platform in Europe and internationally.
The main import regions remain Asia, Africa and South America, with South America showing very strong growth compared to the same period in 2025. Exports to Africa and North America increased, while exports to Asia declined.
Cargo flight movements decreased by 2.7%. This decline is mainly due to a reduction in the number of full-freighter flights, partially offset by an increase in integrator flight movements.
