The Brussels Airport Logo History

On 19 October 2006 the airport revealed its new name and identity with a view to giving an airport that is considered as one of the best in Europe a strong, consistent and unique brand.

Since then the whole airport community has united behind this brand and the values it stands for. 260 companies and the 20,000 persons they employ are working together to build a strong Brussels Airport.

The name "Brussels Airport" was the obvious choice: it is a strong international name for an international platform; the name builds on the recognition of Brussels as capital of Europe.

The new logo
The new logo expresses the new identity, the international character and the values of the airport:




A. The intersecting lines - meridians or aircraft contrails - stress Brussels Airport's role as the gateway to the capital and heart of Europe.
B. The blue colour is a modern, dynamic and inviting shade of blue.
C. The stylish dark grey communicates efficiency and quality.
D. The typeface is easy to read and radiates friendliness and efficiency.
E. The baseline 'Welcome to Europe' stresses the core role of the airport as gateway to Europe.
