Brussels South Charleroi Airport is Belgium’s second-busiest airport and a major hub for low-cost carriers, connecting millions of passengers to destinations across Europe and beyond. Despite its “Brussels South” name, the airport is located approximately 60 km from the capital, making it a unique operational choice for airlines and an interesting logistical case for simmers.

Originally built in 1919, the site has a long aviation history, evolving from a military airfield into a thriving civilian airport. Today, EBCI is particularly known for its high traffic density of short-haul flights, offering constant turnaround activity perfect for realistic airline operations in the simulator.
