Terminal Information – Departing

Newcastle Airport has one terminal. The departure lounge has a good range of shops and places to grab a bite to eat. You can pick up some last minute essentials at Boots, some in-flight reading at WHSmith, or browse luxury goodies in World Duty Free. High street stores include Accessorize and JD Sports. There are four fast food destinations at the airport, two restaurants and a bar. Greggs and Starbucks are perfect if you just need a coffee and a cake. Upper Crust and Burger King offer something slightly more filling. For a proper meal, head to The Cabin where you can enjoy locally sourced food, or pop into The Flying Hippo American Diner. The Beer House is ideal for a pre-flight drink, and if you smoke you can indulge your habit in the bar's small outdoor area. An executive lounge is provided by Aspire. Entry starts at £21.99*. The atmosphere is more peaceful than the general departure lounge, and you can help yourself to the complimentary refreshments. It's perfect if you want to kick off your holiday in style, and the unlimited Wi-Fi makes it easy if you have a bit of work to get on with before your flight.

Terminal Information – Arriving

Brussels Airport has one arrivals hall, making it easy to get off your flight and head into the city. The fastest way into Brussels is by train. The station is underneath the arrivals hall and is well signposted. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the city centre using the Belgian Rail trains, which depart the airport every 15 minutes. Single tickets are €8.50* (about £6). If your hotel is near Luxemburgplein, or if you want to tranfer onto the Metro system, it's more convenient to take bus 12 or bus 21.  Both buses stop at Schuman metro station, and you can use your bus ticket for onward transportation. It takes about half an hour to reach Luxemburgplein from the airport and tickets cost €3* ( about £2.10). If you prefer private transport to public, you can hail a taxi from the rank outside. The trip into the city should set you back around €35* (roughly £25). Car hire is available from Brussels Airport: remember to compare prices with Skyscanner.

What to expect in Brussels

Brussels is one hour ahead of Newcastle and the currency is the Euro (€). Brussels has two official languages, French and Flemish. The majority of people (80%) speak French, so there's no need to brush up on your Flemish. It's a good idea to know a few French phrases, however, as not everyone is proficient in English.
