If my luggage is collected the day before my flight, what happens to it during the night?

Depending on the luggage service you choose, your luggage will be collected by the courier or Securitas driver.

  • Drop & go: the courier takes all the luggage to a special storage area at the airport with security cameras. You can pick up your luggage from there on the day of departure and then check it in yourself.
  • Premium services: all the luggage collected by Securitas is taken first to a highly secure depot at Zaventem. The luggage is screened there at various levels and then undergoes a final screening process in the airport itself. The airport tries to process as much luggage as possible during the night to spread the workload and reduce queues at check-in. That is more comfortable and safer for both passengers and staff. Fewer people checking in or collecting their luggage at the airport makes things easier for everyone.
