After announcing cancellation of its flights from Mumbai and Delhi to Brussels, scheduled for Thursday, Jet Airways said it is making arrangements to transport its passengers stuck in Brussels. The Brussels airport is closed for operations and is out of bound for passengers.

A spokesperson of the airline said that the airline was making arrangements for its passengers in Brussels, "Jet Airways has now made alternate arrangements to transfer its guests from Brussels. All the airline’s guests will travel today to Amsterdam in 15 buses and will be accommodated there in hotels tonight. At the same time, our aircraft will fly from Brussels to Amsterdam as ferry flights."

The airline said that guests will board the Jet Airways aircraft at Amsterdam airport for travel to Delhi, Mumbai and Toronto. The airline also said that it is making alternate arrangements for guests travelling to Newark.

Jet Airways is working closely with the Belgian authorities and the Indian Embassy to facilitate an early transit for its guest and crew from Brussels. The airline said that it was closely monitoring the situation in Brussels. The airline's Emergency Response Centre in Mumbai and the Local Incident Control Centre in Brussels are working round the clock to provide all possible support.

Two Jet Airways crew members, identified as Nidhi Chaphekar and Amit  Motwanai  from Mumbai, were injured in the explosions that rocked Brussels' Zaventem airport on Tuesday morning which led the airline to cancel all its flights to and from the Belgian capital.
