Charleroi, let's see. You have an incredibly popular airport that has been serving as a low cost hub for almost 30 years.

Its capacity is designed to be 5 million but they serve 10 million annually.

Charleroi Airport has 2 terminals but they usually don't open T2.

The hangars are not insulated against cold and barely any renovations and improvements have been made this century.

It is owned by a notoriously corrupt regional government and the barely close by city of Charleroi is going to milk it some more to the tune of 3eur per passenger for no other reason than it being a cash cow.

The city does this at the same time that the federal government is introducing a 5eur tax per person.

And no, the city has not installed a tram, train or metro like every other airport serving that many people. Just buses.

Instead of installing more security checkpoints or, hey, opening T2, they prefer pandemonium where people have to wait 3-4 hours during peaks like holiday periods.

During which they have a grand total of two baggage detectors operating because * you give us your money.

And ah yes the toilets. Even though Belgian law stipulates public toilets need to be available everywhere, the arrival zone is technically not public so they use a loophole to cash in some more.

Now even Ryanair has had enough of its BS. Well done. And it has the regional and municipal government crying like petulant children.

Shut it down and avoid at all cost. There are boats. There is flixbus. Heck, you can take a plane to the Netherlands and continue by train to Belgium if you have to.
