Business Class

For our Business Class menu we developed a menu that offers a wide range of delicious and fresh food options. We take pride in showcasing our country's culinary savoir-faire. That is why along with popular non-Belgian dishes like salad niçoise and Greek salad, our on-board catering will feature local recipes and products from Belgian providers, giving passengers a taste of our culture and making them feel at home while in the air. The meal offerings will change from week to week and we will continue offering a wide selection of premium drinks, including crémant, beers, and hot and cold beverages.

Good to know 

We recognise that there are passengers who are allergic to nuts, for example. Passengers are advised that we serve nut products on board and that there may be trace elements of unspecified nut ingredients in meals and snacks. 

In addition, other passengers may bring nuts on board. As such, we're not able to guarantee a nut-free environment on a Brussels Airlines-operated flight.
