BRU Airport Code: Brussels Airport IATA & ICAO

Brussels Airport (BRU) is stored for Brussels, Belgium. ICAO EBBR. Timezone Europe/Brussels. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

BRU is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Brussels Airport in Brussels, Belgium (BE). The matching ICAO identifier is EBBR. Travel agents see BRU on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example BRULHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO EBBR is used in flight plans and ATC, not as the two-or-three-character GDS city-pair token. The IANA timezone recorded for local GDS times at this airport is Europe/Brussels. This code page explains how BRU is used in PNR text. It is not a live departures board. Terminal maps, contact phone numbers, lounge lists, and published flight schedules are not available in this dataset and are not invented here. Nearby airports stored for Belgium: none stored in this country slice. Related IATA city code in this dataset: BRU. To turn a booked PNR that contains BRU into a customer itinerary, paste the cryptic text into the PNR parser.

Example

Example GDS segment using this airport as origin: 2 AI 101 J 12OCT 1 BRULHR HK1 0945 1510 12OCT E The parser should read BRU as departure. Times 0945/1510 are local as printed, not converted to your PC clock. If BRU is missing from the dataset, city and timezone enrichment stay empty rather than guessed.
