Brussels Airlines NV moved 21 aircraft out of its home city in an effort to resume flights for the year's peak travel period after Tuesday's terrorist attacks shut Belgium's main airport until the start of next week.
The carrier will relocate 10 Airbus Group SE A320-family planes to Liege, 60 miles (97 km) east of Brussels, and five BAE Systems plc Avro RJ100 regional jets to Antwerp, 30 miles north. It's also moving six A330 long-haul airliners abroad, basing three each at Frankfurt and Zurich airports after the authorities said that its home hub won't open before Monday.
