“The arctic region in winter is no-less than magical. Brussels Airlines has been offering these winter wonderland destinations in cooperation with travel agencies, but as demand grows, flights to the region will from now on also be offered as scheduled passenger flights, allowing travellers even more choice to discover outdoor adventures and distinctive local culture.”

Nordland and Lapland offer untouched natural landscapes and is ideal for observing northern lights during the winter months.
Tackling seasonality
Demand in the aviation industry is highly seasonal, with the summer months as peak season. Brussels Airlines has been working on tackling this seasonality with a variety of measures, such as student cabin crew members to increase productivity during the peak season, but also by adding attractive winter destinations.
Since winter 2024, Brussels Airlines offers four destinations in the Canary Islands during winter, with the addition of Fuerteventura. Also, Funchal in Madeira was added to the schedule as a destination with year-round mild temperatures.
As of this year, the Nordics are the newest addition to the winter timetable in order to offer an attractive leisure network, year-round.
