Very nice airport, easily accessible by Public Transport. Brussels Airlines lounge has recently been nominated as one of the best lounges in Europe, I don't disagree with the nomination at all (good food, good drink selection, nice views). Getting around airport is very easy

Always been a very good airport. Though, after the terrorist strikes the airport was on high security levels and there were barely any people there. The airport is always very clean and tidy. Take some extra time to get from the check-in to the gates though. It's a bit of a walk, and there is no transportation available.

Fast security check and connection to the gates because of the new 'connector' building...
Check-in was fast. Good service.

An airport where seemingly everything works. Check-in was quick. Departure lounge with efficient heating. Transit to the airport very fast by freeway. Intense air traffic. Wifi worked very well even on the airplane before take off.

A great airport! When you dont have a bag to check in it's the easiest airport I've been to. The new connector is amazing and great for relaxing. Altough the drink prices were a little high, which is to be expected after security, the small relaxing area which has a great view of the tarmac is a great place to stay when you have some time to kill!

Increased security measures require you to arrive at the airport earlier. Except for this, the airport is extremely easy to reach by train, bus, car, ..
Security is rather fast and takes around 10 minutes. There are quite a lot power outlets, though not all of them are in use. The connector building offers couches, while there are also relax chairs at the end of terminal A (around gate A69).
Water costs ?1. Water refills are free, and the staff of coffee bars will refill them without hesitation.

Great clean airport, long walk from terminal to baggage claim but if you arrive your bagage is already rolling up. So compesates everything.
Great acces with bus or train. Train stops under the airport.

They seem to be stricter than most of the European airports (I guess after the attacks) - my laptop was constantly buzzing, haha. Generally though it wasn't bad. Plus for good free wi-fi.

Very easy to reach by public transport (Bus or train are much more convenient than cars in Brussels)
The airport is the right size (not too big, not too small) and very easy to find your way around
Brussels Lounge in Pier A I find one of the better ones in the EU

Getting to the airport is very easy by train, you get dumped directly into the check-in area. Went trough security twice (anti-terrorism measures) both times this wen very fast and without problems. The main security is very professional and always happens fast due to multiple lanes. The airport is very clean, modern and has plenty of facilities. Lots of restaurants offer a nice view of the apron. Airside there is plenty of seating space.

What can I say about this airport. It is one of the most well organized airports in the world. Clean, bright and so many option to spend your time there. Many restaurants, shops. The only thing that I didnt like so much was the luggage claim that is smaller area.

The terminal at Brussels Airport is very nice. Security is modern and well lit. Took 5-10 minutes to clear. Flight was from Pier B. Some work is being done to refurbish that area and so there was alot of scaffolding. Good facilities and plenty of them. Pier B is very long so can take some time. Very useful to do some planespotting. Seating at the very end of Pier B is very good for planespotting. Wifi was very good and reliable. Very happy with the facilities.

The terminal seams new and spacious. The unboarding and getting in terminal was fast and efficient. Airport lacks food and retail services and food is very expensive and not tasty at all. Wi-Fi accessible, but only for an hour. Baggage handling wasn't fast but okay. Regular train service to/from city.

It was very good airport with great connection with the city! I can't connect with the internet and there is a little bit to long distance to walk but it is tipical for big airports. I like very much the train station. The airport has a very good sign system

Getting to the airport is easy with the train, remember to take your trainticket because you need it to exit the station.
Immigration is OK, as long as you have a European passport. For other nationalties, there can be a loing wait.
Baggage claim can be faster.

This is my home airport. Although it might not be one of the busiest airports of the world, it certainly offers quite a lot of (food)shops and there's an observation level in one of the terminals from where you can observe the aircraft.

Traffic on the way to the airport from north direction is a pain. Trains Antwerp to BRU airport are often late or cancel.
But the airport itself it is clean and spacious. Little to less signs of directions...

Nice, modern and relatively clean airport (I have yet to encounter non-sticky bathroom floors in any arrival area unless they cleaned it minutes earlier).
Downsides are the long walk to Terminal A and T and the rather long queues at security.
Unlike some reviewers said there is a decent choice of food ranging from fastfood (Quick, Belgian Burger King equivalent) to some more refined food. Decent for airport food but nothing special. Definitely better than Charleroi airport though (which also has no Burger King mr. Shemeek, there isn't a single Burger King in Belgium as of 2014 but as said earlier, Brussels Airport has at least two Quick's which are similar).
Nice selection of shops especially if you like food and drinks as souvenirs. WiFi is only available after a tedious registration unless you're a customer of a specific broadband provider but fixed internet outlets are offered.
Baggage claim takes a long time but this is largely compensated by the long walk there. There are many carrousels available so it's not too crowded. Only one exit is a small downside however.
Transport from/too the airport is very good with a bus and train station in the airport and a good taxi service. Car traffic, as always in Belgium, is slow due to congestion.

Huge airport, no wifi, getting to is quite expencive. Food and beverages are pricey too. It's relly clean and well organised, train station is located just under the airport which is a huge plus. Has all the characteristics of a major hub.

Good airport but the walk from the Check in Desks to a far gate in Pier A can take up to 30 minutes ...
There are a lot of trains to and from Brussels and Antwerp but ticket prices are too high.
Some lounged like Diamond Lounge are old and not up to standards

Busy season at the time of writing so the queue to get to the passport check was long. On the way back after landing at around 22:45, all of the self-check passport gates were closed which is annoying and slows down the processing of arrivals. More often than not, these self-check machines are closed which is pretty disappointing. Otherwise, a normal, uneventful experience.

I'm sure this is a great airport, but on the weekend of 31OCT, the place was absolutely heaving. Just about got through to the gate in time for the flight, despite arriving 2h + before the flight. No chance to use any facilities.

Large, clear, open spaces, broad travelators for rapid movement along the terminal. Limited, pricy, but good standard of food, and interesting personally-powered charging points for mobiles and computers. Good but expensive city connection.

All shops and restaurants close at 8 or 9, vending machines only accept coins,
Wifi requires filling up a big form.
the terminal is a long tube - so gates are quite far from each other (but if you are lucky they are very close)
