Brussels Airport is due to get daily early-morning night train connections from Bruges and Ghent from late 2027, according to a report published on 8 June 2026. The planned service would give passengers in both cities a rail option to reach the airport before the first regular morning trains.
At present, the earliest weekday trains from Bruges and Ghent arrive only after 5:30 a.m., while services from Brussels reach Brussels Airport at around 4:30 a.m. The new overnight links are intended to close that gap and improve access for early departures.
Brussels Airport, located in Zaventem, Belgium, is the country’s main hub and a key point for short-haul and long-haul traffic. The report did not provide full operational details, including the operator, exact timetable or implementation mechanics, so those elements will need confirmation closer to launch.
