President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. met with Brussels Airport's chief executive officer (CEO) Arnaud Feist on December 13 to discuss the possibility of launching non-stop flights between Belgium and the Philippines.

Currently in Brussels, Marcos met with Feist on the sideline of his participation in the commemorative summit betwen the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the European Union (EU).

In a Facebook post, the Office of the President said that the meeting was about setting up direct flights from Brussels to Manila, allowing Filipinos, Europeans, and Southeast Asians to enjoy a "hassle-free" travel to and from the Philippines and Belgium.
