Brussels Zaventem Airport
Traveller Comments....
"I wanted to tell them "shush" but no need: an airport agent (was he a cleaner maybe?) approached them and told them to keep it down (!!!) showing the people around that were asleep." (Eleni)
"staff cleaning with hell machine, cleaning much better in the area close to people sleeping." (?)
"I just spent two nights in Brussels International Airport in January 2003. The first night I arrived on a delayed flight from Copenhagen around midnight and didn't want to bother with a hotel and the costs." (Justin)

"The departure hall has little or no seats, but does have a Starbucks that is open 24hrs.
But if you really want a quiet night, head to the departure terminals. You do need a boarding card or else you won't be allowed access, so try to check in online and print your boarding card before you head to the airport, as the counters will probably be closed before you get there.
If you're taking a non-schengen flight, you'll be leaving from terminal B. You have to arrive before the border control closes. This is usually at around 11pm, but depends on when the last flight leaves. You can then head to the 4th level. To the far side, there are a few soft leathery benches where you can sleep more comfortable than on the metal chairs. You can also continue through security into the terminal. There are many soft benches in the B-terminal and a few overpriced vending machines.
If your flight is intra Schengen, you can go into terminal A. It kinda depends on the guy checking your boarding card if you will get in or not. Some make a problem of the fact that your flight is only leaving the next day and won't allow you access. Others won't care. Good luck ;) Once you clear security, head up 1 or 2 levels. There are plenty of rather comfy lounge chairs in the shopping mall like area. All shops and restaurants close at night, so only cleaning and security will be around."
