Brussels Zaventem Airport Spotting Guide

Published by Wout at August 14, 2015 - last modified on August 19, 2020

Brussels Airport (IATA: BRU, ICAO: EBBR) is located northeast of Brussels, the capital of Belgium. In 2019, Brussels Airport hit a new passenger traffic record with 26.4 million passengers. Cargo transport closed the year at 667 thousand tonnes.  The Military part, named Melsbroek (ICAO: EBMB), is located on the northeast side of the airport, with which it shares runways and ground and air control facilities.

As of May 2018, Brussels Airport now offers 2 official spotting platforms. They are listed as spot#16 & Spot#17 in our guide below. More info on the platforms can be found on the official Brussels Airport site => https://www.brusselsairport.be/

There is also cargo handling (Brucargo) and a general aviation part (mainly handled by Luxaviation). Cargo comes mainly from Ethiopian Cargo, Qatar Cargo, Saudi Arabian Cargo and Singapore Cargo, but also DHL and a few brokers.

Brussels Airlines and TUI Belgium have their homebase at EBBR. Of course, several other carriers serve Brussels Airport as well, from all over Europe, North Africa (Royal Air Maroc, Tunsiair, Egypt Air, RwandAir), the USA (United, Delta, American), Asia (Hainan, Thai, Cathay) and MEA (Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad). Brussels Airlines also connects to a lot of destinations in the African continent. Most movements happen between 7:00 and 14:00, when most long-haul flights arrive and depart. Also the evening can bring some nice and interesting flights. The lowest traffic happens between 14:00 & 17:00.

Since the NATO headquarters are located in Brussels, at less than 5km from the airport, we regularly have some nice governmental visitors, when NATO summits are happening.

Free parking is available around the airport, but you might have to take a walk to some of the spots nevertheless. The bus station is located on level 0 – one floor down from the arrivals hall. Brucargo is served by bus lines 272, 616, 651, 652, 659, 660, 681, 682, 683, 686, 820, 821 and 830. All De Lijn services that run via Brucargo depart from platform B. The use of the De Lijn buses between bus stops located within the airport perimeter is free for all.

Bus info with all lines passing the airport => De Lijn, stop Zaventem Perron A

 Terminal B Only used for flights outside the Schengen Area.
Spotting Information
Ladder Could be helpful at some places for spotters that absolutely don’t want any obstacles in the pictures, but you can easily make it without one.
Car/Public Transport For some spots it’s advised to use a car, else you’ll lose more time in public transport etc… Some spots are a little walk away from the parking spots though, but it’s acceptable.
Restrooms Inside the terminal and parking buildings. None at most spots, but some fuel-stations/pubs are near.
Drinks/Food Typical (fast)food inside the terminal (Quick, Pizza Hut, EXKI, Starbucks…) (public area). Small shops at the terminal and a few gas stations around the airport. Also a Carrefour Express in Steenokkerzeel center and a Delhaize in the cargo area (north of the airport).
Hotels Several hotels around/at the airport.
Season The weather can be pretty variable. Best periods are late spring, whole summer and early autumn. Winter gives an opportunity for some nice light pictures as well, without heat-haze.
Runway Usage
General Info In general 25 is most times in use. There is an offical Preferential Runway System (PRS) defined by the Belgian Civil Aviation Authority ( BCAA ) and Federal Minister for Transport:

Weekdays Monday-Friday (06:00-22:59) Departures runway 25R, Arrivals runways 25L and 25R

Further information on runway usage can be found on: www.batc.be/en

25R Mainly used for departures. Most flights coming from Shengen countries, mostly Brussels Airlines land here.  Also cargo and military arrivals use this RWY for arrivals
25L Mainly used for landings (most, if not all non-shengen flights land here as the park at Terminal B) and sometimes VIP aircraft parking at Melsbroek air base. very rarely used for departures.
07R Mainly used for departures when RWY 07 conditions apply ((north)eastern winds).
07L Used as main arrivals RWY when 07 conditions apply. Used as departure RWY for cargo aircraft and bizjets parked at Abelag VIP apron.

P1 Front Parking - 25R arrivals and departures

WHERE The spot is located on the top floor of the P1 Front parking. You have a nice sight of the runway and taxiway but the sight is very limited due to the many light poles and parked aircraft. Furthermore its very far from the action and upcoming heat is an issue all year round.

By car:
From the Brussels Ring (R0), follow the A201 towards Zaventem and Brussels Airport. When approaching the airport you will see the airport buildings in front of you. Once you pass the bridge, follow the “Front Park P1” signs. Parking at P1 isn’t cheap, so best is to park somewhere around the airport and either walk to P1 or try to catch one of the free De Lijn buses that tour between the Brucargo area and the airport.

By train/bus:
Get off at Brussels Airport and follow the signs to P1. You can’t miss.
WHAT Recommend for 25R departures during the morning rush hour when they rotate infront of you. If there is less wind almost all are still on the ground, even small aircraft (better to use spot #3).
Taxishots are possible and some planes from the general aviation pass by in front of the parking.
In general its very hard to photograph from here, especially the runway due to the distance.
TIME From sunrise until noon/early afternoon with best light conditions. But due to the distance and upcoming heat only recommend in the early morning.
MISC. Parking fees are 4 EUR/hour (maximum 20 EUR/day). Airport buildings are nearby for food and drinks and there are free toilets (Parking ticket needed to open the door) on the 5th floor.
FOCAL LENGTH 200-600mm.
on runway: A320=600mm; 772=300mm

P3 Holiday Parking - 01/19 overview & 07R/25L overview & taxishots

WHERE The spot is located on the top floor of the P3 parking (holiday parking).

By car:
From the Brussels Ring (R0), follow the A201 towards Zaventem. You will see the airport buildings in front of you. Once you pass the bridge, just follow the “Holiday P3” signs. Parking at P3 isn’t cheap (2EUR / 0.5hours), so best is to park somewhere around the airport and either walk to P3 or try to catch one of the free De Lijn buses that shuttle between the Brucargo area and the airport.

By train/bus:
Get off at Brussels Airport and follow the signs to P3. You can’t miss.
WHAT In general you have an overview of runway 01/19 and spot all movements on this runway. Aircraft on the way for a 07R departure and leaving 25L.
TIME Depends which runway you wanna photograph.
Great light for planes vacating runway 25L (taxiways) when the light is on the runway and the other locations are no longer possible. Same for 01/19 movements.
From late afternoon until sunset during the summer months for planes directly on 07R/25.
Heat haze is a problem on warm days!
MISC. Parking fees are 4 EUR/hour (maximum 20 EUR/day). Airport buildings are nearby for food and drinks and there are toilets on the 5th floor (Most of the times a valid parking ticket needed to enter). 
FOCAL LENGTH 150-400mm (Turkish = 200mm, Royal Air Maroc = 240mm, Saudi Cargo = 300mm)

Brussels Airlines Crewcenter parking - 25R departures + general aviation

WHERE The spot is located on the parking between the Luxaviation building and the Brussels Airlines Crewcenter on a narrow piece of lawn.

By car:
From the Brussels Ring (R0), follow the A201 towards Zaventem. You will see the airport buildings in front of you. Don’t pass the bridge, but keep to the right and follow “General Aviation” at the roundabout. This will lead you onto the Ringlaan. You will pass Luxaviation, the Brussels Airlines Crewcenter and then the Thomas Cook offices on your right. Take a left (little uphill) and go left again (Olmenstraat) to cross the bridge. At the roundabout, go right and then you have a possible parking spot on your right side (Then it’s a 10min walk to the spot). Parking at the Luxaviation reserved parking is not allowed!

By bus from the airport:
Take the bus at the airport and get off at the Brussels Airlines Crewcenter (bus stop B-house, lines 272, 616, 651, 652, 659, 660, 681, 682, 683, 686, 820, 821 & 830). You’re directly at the spot. You can also walk from the airport for approximate 20 minutes.
WHAT You have a clear view of planes taking off on runway 25R, although if they are small/light, they might be pretty high already (bellyshots). In front of you is part of the general aviation parking, so you can also see some parked planes here, however the view is now heavily obstructed by a huge concrete wall and a double fence.
TIME From morning till early afternoon.
MISC. (!) Recently, they build a wall of approx. 2m high between the parking and the general aviation parking space, so if you want to have a shot of parked planes, you’ll need a ladder of several steps. Not really allowed, so if you dare, it’s hit and run. Also, there is nothing near this place, so bring along food/drinks. Since you’re on a non-public parking, try to respect it! Recently there have been a few cases where Police asked spotters to leave.
FOCAL LENGTH 25R takeoff 150-400mm, general aviation 50-200mm (Vueling = 350mm, Thai = 165mm, Irish Government = 155mm)

Take line 651 at the airport and get off at bus stop Steenokkerzeel Dijkstraat. Then walk to the spot (+/- 500m walk)
WHAT You will be able to see planes coming in on rwy25L. You can also use this spot for takeoff 07R but not in the best conditions. Due to obstacles, clean side on shots are almost not possible. You can also move closer to the fence and give it a go with a 5-6step ladder over the fence if you want sideshots. (JUNE 2020, recent updates have been made on the fence. It now stands even higher so full side-on shots are impossible to get, even with a full size ladder.)
TIME Late afternoon till sunset.
MISC. Don’t park your car in front of the gate, but search a parking place in the vicinity instead.

From the E19 (Brussel-Antwerpen), it’s the same start as for spot#7, towards Steenokkerzeel Centrum but go straight ahead at the first roundabout (first exit, on the Tervuursesteenweg).

Then walk to the spot (it’s +/-15min walk!).
There is an alternative spot, too, which isn’t worth an extra grid, because everything is the same – you’re only ~200 meters to the southwest, so most of the planes won’t be that high here. The location can be found next to the permiter fence on a grasshill (16b).
WHAT You will be able to see planes landing on RWY 25L or take-off from runway 07R (some small planes might be pretty high already. To avoid this, you can take spot 16b, which is a bit nearer to the point of rotate = less high!), BUT LADDERS ARE FORBIDDEN AT SPOT #16B – as shown on the specific overview shot.
TIME Early morning till late midday.
MISC. Some might not like it for 25L arrival shots, since you can have some fence in your pics for some bigger planes. A little step could be useful, but the usage of ladder is only allowed at the plattform (#16a) – at he grasshill (#16b) it’s forbidden! This is a frequently visited spot, so please do respect it.

When coming in from the E40 (Brussel – Luik), take exit 21 (Sterrebeek) and go on the N227 towards Steenokkerzeel. Continue straight ahead for +/-2km (you’ll pass 2 red lights).

This place can be really crowded on sunny days and most like to take a ladder to avoid the fence in the pictures for rwy01 arrival shots (especially the heavies) and the insects which might cause spots on your pictures. You can use the tree stump at the front to get a bit higher, but for heavies you’ll have the fence still in the pictures ( KLM and Etihad taken from the stump).
Please respect the farmer’s field and don’t walk in the middle of it but use the edge to walk around it. Shadow might be a problem in summer, but you can use the forest on the other side of the field.

    Hi Björn, firts of all, thanks for this detailed spotting guide.
    I have a question for you: It is easy to get to point P1 “Front Parking” from the arrivals terminal ?
    I am thinking of spotting for a couple of hours that I will be at the airport.

    Hi, Thank you so much your nice guide.
    If you don’t mind asking my asking, Is there any facilities near the Spot 16 / Spotting Platform ?
    Store, Restroom,

    I’m going to visit there from my hotel, but I have no cars to get there.
    So I might stay there long time. Based on your guide, I’ll visit there in early morning.

    Your advice is really helpful.

      Hi, no at spotting position 16 is nothing. No restrooms, no shop etc.
      Possible to find something at the village where spots 10-12 are. There is a sidewalk on the main road where you can reach it.

      Regards

    Another place to see arrivals 25R is in the Rutstraat. Enter this street from the Damlaan and park your car just in front of the entrance of the forest. Go further into the forest until you reach the open field. Go to your right and pick your favo place. Planes arriving on 25 R are here a little higher but ok.
    Nothing to eat, drink or whatever here, so bring all the stuff you need with you.
