The curved wingtips claim "I'm more efficient". The bigger engines whisper "I'm quieter". The black cockpit mask boasts "I look fabulous 😎". So… can you guess who touched down at Brussels Airport?    Our home carrier, Brussels Airlines, welcomes its eighth Airbus A320neo to its fleet. This latest-generation aircraft cuts CO₂ emissions by up to 20% and makes 50% less noise than the previous generation.   And that story doesn't stop there. At #BrusselsAirport, we actively encourage airlines to invest in the most noise-efficient aircraft through differentiated airport charges. Since April 2023, the quietest aircraft pay up to 20 times less than the noisiest, creating a strong incentive for fleet renewal.   The result? Real, measurable progress. Together with our airline partners, 42% of all flights at our airport are now operated by the most noise-efficient aircraft. Proof that growth and reduced environmental impact can go hand in hand.   #WeAreBrusselsAirport
