Flights to Brugge
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Brugge is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Ostend-Bruges International Airport (OST), 24 km (15 mi) from the centre, whose 10,499-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Lille Airport (LIL, 72 km), Brussels Airport (BRU, 94 km), Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (ANR, 86 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ostend-Bruges International Airport | OST | 24 km (15 mi) | 10,499 ft | 13 ft |
| Lille Airport | LIL | 72 km (45 mi) | 9,268 ft | 157 ft |
| Brussels Airport | BRU | 94 km (58 mi) | 11,936 ft | 175 ft |
| Antwerp International Airport (Deurne) (regional) | ANR | 86 km (53 mi) | 4,954 ft | 39 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,499 ft, OST can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 13 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
