Belgian Government Locks-In 2026 Funding Model for Air Navigation Services
Belgium has approved a Royal Decree confirming how air-navigation services will be financed in 2026. Airlines at Brussels Airport will pay the same charges as in 2025, while the federal state will subsidise regional airports.
