Bruno De Saegher will become the new CEO of Antwerp and Ostend-Bruges airports from 1 September, succeeding Eric Dumas, who has led both airports since late 2020. 

Mr De Saegher is currently chairman of airport development company Flanders (LOM Flanders) where he has worked since 2015.  

Ostend-Bruges Airport said: “His appointment comes at a strategic time, right after the granting of a new environmental permit for Antwerp Airport and during the advanced stage of the application for Ostend-Bruges. The new CEO will implement the new environmental permit and build on the future development of both airports. 

In recent years, Mr De Saegher has also been active as a district councilor in Berchem, but will not run again in the municipal elections on 13 October. 

He said: “I look forward to working with my colleagues and all involved parties on the further development of Antwerp Airport and Ostend-Bruges Airport.  

“Both airports have great potential and are essential for supporting the economy. I am confident that we can develop the airports in a sustainably responsible manner.”
