Brussels Airlines is preparing for Summer 2027 by adding Cairo (Egypt) as a new destination and increasing frequencies to Kilimanjaro (Tanzania). 

Brussels Airlines continues to diversify and optimize its network for the Summer 2027 season, responding to strong customer demand and further strengthening connectivity between Belgium, Africa and Europe.

Cairo joins the network

The Belgian home carrier plans to welcome Cairo (Egypt) as a new destination to its network in Summer 2027 with up to five weekly flights. The airline intends to initially operate the route during the summer season and has the ambition to expand it to a year-round service. The first flight is planned for Monday, March ? 29 2027.

Cairo combines ancient history with vibrant city life and a culinary scene worth discovering. Earlier this year, the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo opened its doors and is expected to attract millions of visitors per year.

Following the successful launch of Kilimanjaro in June 2026, Brussels Airlines will further strengthen its presence in Tanzania by adding a third weekly flight from the end of June. Just one year after the route’s launch, this additional rotation reflects the strong demand seen since its introduction and offers travellers greater flexibility to explore one of East Africa’s most iconic destinations.
