There were plenty of various restaurants, working areas and seating areas. The restrooms were very clean. After claiming the luggage, follow the signs to customs. Going through customs was to bad..... the signs will direct you which line to go to. Approximately, 15 minutes later, I was at the custom gate. After answering a few questions, I was on my way. Instead of taking a train, I decided to take an Uber to the hotel. Just follow the signs for the car sharing, taxi and bus area. By the time I got to the designated location, the car was with a few minutes. I didn't find this airport to be very difficult.

Arriving in Brussels, my flight parked at the farthest gate in the Brussels airport and I had a…read morehike to get to border control. The line took almost one hour at 9am on a weekday. Unlike in Germany, it appeared that Brussels had not yet implemented the new customs system at arrivals so non EU citizens queued in one line. EU citizens zipped through with the electronic pass gates. However when it was my turn with the agent I only had to scan the fingers on my right hand, answered a question what do I do for a living and that was it. Less than a couple minutes surprisingl. Baggage claim was right after and then the exit. Very good signage that directed people to the bus, train, parking, etc. When departing Brussels, follow the signs to the appropriate terminal if not checking luggage. Electronic gates required a boarding pass scan to validate trip and gain entrain to the security screening area. At least multiple lines were open so it flowed well. Plastics baggies needed to hold your small liquid containers), water bottles emptied, belts removed but shoes stayed on. Immigration was next and much more efficient on departure. US citizens accessed the electronic gates with just a passport scan and photo. It's not 100% functional as I was told to keep trying gates until my passport was accepted (4th one was the charm). Passport still had to be inspected and stamped afterwards but that was quick. Overall 50-50 rating based on this experience. Hopefully arrivals will be much better after full implementation of the EES screening process.

Past security, there are shops for duty free, and you can relax and have a coffee or adult beverage while waiting for your flight. Small airlines can forgo the standard buses with the ability for passengers to walk right on the aircraft. Amazing airport experience!

This is a small but very convenient airport for people living around Eindhoven. Small airlines like…read moreTransavia and Ryan airlines operate mainly through small airports such as this one. This airport has a lot of connectivity to other airports throughout Europe and north Africa. We recently caught a direct flight from Eindhoven airport into Marrakesh, Morocco for our seventh marriage anniversary trip and it was so very convenient for us. Some of the boarding procedures struck me as odd because since this is a very small airport, you are made to stand outside and walk to your plane. I have done this another small airports but we were made to stand outside in the freezing rain for a long time due to slight miscommunications before we got the green signal to board our plane. If they could iron out these small inefficiencies, I would give this airport five stars.

Sometimes it can be daunting to be at an airport in another country but this one was super easy to navigate and we had a very positive experience here.

However make sure you have your passport handy if you're not an EU citizen, they actually check for visas even though all of EU is domestic. They also don't show up to the check in counter until the scheduled time. The airport is all handled by contractors. So don't be surprised if you see the person that was working with one airline is the same person trying to check you in. I think Swisspoort runs most of EU airports.
