Aviato Academy, a subsidiary of the firm that operates Zaventem Airport and a key player in Belgian aeronautical training, has teamed up with Ocular, known for creating state-of-the-art experience centres, they announced on Friday.
Set to open in October at Brussels Airport, the pioneering aeronautical experience centre promises to immerse visitors completely in the world of aviation, with the 'Digital Experience & Training Centre', the 'Airport Studio' and 'Airport Lab'.
