Peak season
Tourists planning a trip to Europe should include cheap flights to Belgium on their itinerary. This charming picturesque country is chock full of interesting sights and boasts some of the best preserved medieval towns you’ll find in Europe. And if you like chocolate, waffles and beer you’ve come to the right place! Peak season in general is late Spring / Summer and tourists start arriving around April when the Continent starts to warm up, and fall away in mid-October when it cools down. You can book a flight to Belgium from New Zealand or booking cheap flights to Belgium via London also makes good sense as nearby Lille is connected by Eurostar to the UK. You’ll find any flights to Belgium more expensive during the peak of Summer, so plan ahead if you want to visit then.
Off Season
Belgium’s low tourist season is winter, between November and January, when temperatures fall to a frosty 3C. But be prepared to wrap up warm and you’ll enjoy some great deals on flight tickets and hotels. Excepting the Christmas/New Year period, this is the perfect time to book flights to Belgium with ice skating on the canals a number one thing to do. The Christmas markets in Belgium are also magical and worth a visit.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Belgium, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, July is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 17.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 3.0 C).
Belgium is always a good idea, whether as a stand alone trip or included in a wider European itinerary. Being sandwiched in between France and Holland it offers good train and flight connections to these countries. To avoid the crowds, Bruges is best visited in Spring and Autumn, while business towns Brussels, Antwerp and Ghent are busier at this time with conferences, festivals and events. The Procession of the Holy Blood, one of the oldest and most solemn religious events in the world, takes place in May. If you’re thinking of visiting during a festival or event, then book cheap flights to Belgium early to avoid disappointment.

Everything went smoothly, the staff was friendly, the special meal was correct. It was with Singapore Airlines for the first two legs (Penang to Singapore then Singapore to LAX). The final leg of LAX to BWI was with United.
