Good to know
Important information about peanut allergies:
Please note that Brussels Airlines serves products containing nuts and/or peanuts onboard and that other passengers may also bring, and consume, their own products containing (pea)nuts onboard.
Therefore, it is impossible for Brussels Airlines to guarantee that our aircraft and the food served on board are completely free of peanuts or traces of peanut. The same also applies to other foodstuffs that may cause an allergic reaction.
We advise passengers with serious allergies to consider the possible reactions and carry their own emergency medicine with them. Under certain circumstances, they may prefer to bring their own food that does not require chilling or heating on board.
