Liege Airport is on a serious upward trajectory, having handled more than a million tonnes of freight every year for the past five years, and growing. 2024 saw 1.17 million tonnes pass through the airport, and 2025 is set to exceed that by another 12 percent. And that is not all – the airport has ambitious plans regarding digitalisation, sustainability, and above all, creating a multimodal cargo paradise in the heart of Europe.
While over 60 percent of its flights are scheduled, almost 40 percent are charter operations – the highest cargo charter ratio of any airport in Europe. Add to this LGG’s quick turnaround times, swift and efficient customs clearance, and its perfect geographic location at the very heart of the European continent, and it is clear to see why the airport caters to more than 50 cargo airlines – many of them long-term business partners.
It has a clear vision of where it intends to be come 2030: shifting from its current position as Europe’s 5th largest cargo airport, to a place in the Top 3.
