BCUBE ready for cargo at Ostend-Bruges Airport

In spring, it was announced that Italian air cargo handler BCUBE had chosen Ostend-Bruges Airport to build a North-West European hub. The business plan foresees a growth to 400,000 tonnes of cargo a year in five years’ time, of which a substantial share is e-commerce. That is very ambitious in light of Ostend’s 27,719 tonnes of cargo in 2018 and even the annual record of 104,000 tonnes in the years before the 2009 economic crisis.
