Two air cargo companies risk 42,000 euros fine

Another strange twist in the noise file at Brussels Airport. This time, it is not the Brussels Ring that issues fines for exceeding noise standards, but the Halle-Vilvoorde public prosecutor’s office. With this, they want to punish “repeat offenders” for repeatedly exceeding standards. Three companies have already been charged, but an American company was still able to reach an amicable agreement. A Canadian and a Portuguese airline, however, risk having to pay hefty sums. They risk having to pay 12,000 and even 30,000 euros.
