Door2gate2 Brussels South Charleroi PRESS RELEASE A new mobility solution to/from Brussels South Charleroi Airport: flibco.com launches Door2Gate Charleroi, 19 November 2019 – flibco.com, a company specialising in transporting people to airports, today launches a new way to get to Brussels South Charleroi Airport. The goal of Door2Gate, a shared mobility solution, is to take travellers from their home to the airport in a more personal way. In a comfortable vehicle, along with other users, passengers will be taken from their front door to BSCA. Available for residents of the Brussels-Capital region, its outskirts and Walloon Brabant as far as Hainaut, this service is charged on a sliding scale depending on the number of travellers. Door2Gate, a new alternative for journeys to Brussels South Charleroi Airport, is aimed at families, business travellers and other individuals travelling for leisure or tourism. Thanks to this new service, the airport now offers another means of transport, making it even more accessible. Thanks to its algorithm for optimising journeys, flibco.com’s new software can guarantee the punctuality of the shuttle buses by calculating the best possible route. The goal is to transport as many passengers as possible by optimising navigation data (the cost of the journey is then divided by the number of people travelling). The catchment area for the first phase of the launch encompasses the whole Brussels-Capital region, its outskirts and a large proportion of Walloon Brabant, as far as Hainaut (from La Hulpe to Pont-à-Celles via Wavre and Ottignies-Louvain-La-Neuve). Depending on how successful this is, the geographical coverage offered by Door2Gate will gradually be extended. Paul DE MUYNCK, Director of flibco Belgium explains: “Door2Gate is a huge step for flibco.com. Lots of passengers are familiar with our coaches that travel along Belgium’s motorways. We will now be picking our customers up from their home or hotel, and taking them to the airport economically and ecologically” Philippe VERDONCK, Chief Executive Officer of Brussels South Charleroi Airport, announces: “A new way of getting to the airport is now possible thanks to the services offered by flibco.com. It is important to have a fairly wide range of options so that passengers can choose how they get to BSCA. ” For further information flibco.com Paul DE MUYNCK DIRECTOR BELGIUM Telephone: (+352) 50 55 62 63 02 Mobile: (+352) 691 277037 [email protected] Matteo CIRIO Head of Marketing & Digital Communication Telephone: (+352) 50 55 62 63 16 Mobile: (+352) 691 277 060 Brussels South Charleroi Airport Vincent GRASSA Press Relations & Communications Manager Telephone: +32 (0)71/251.148 Email: [email protected] https://www.brussels-charleroi-airport.com About Brussels South Charleroi Airport Brussels South Charleroi Airport has been recognised many times for its services and facilities, and is one of two airports serving the city of Brussels.

What a fabulous setting in which to celebrate the completion of my having visited every city in a province, the wonderful and young province of Walloon Brabant. I have now visited 436 cities throughout Belgium, and with our visit to Orp-Jauche earlier today, I have visited every official city, village or commune in Walloon Brabant, making it the first province I have completed. Let me also apologize for my poor French that I hope is not too difficult on your ears. Since I arrived almost 3 years ago, I started taking language lessons for an hour per day, 5 days a week, one day French and the next day Dutch. I am obviously not a good student, but I will continue to work on both languages and will also use English to rescue us all for part of my brief comments today. Michelle et moi sommes ravis d’être ici aujourd’hui entourés d’amis formidables et dans ce cadre magnifique afin de continuer à célébrer le partenariat belgo-américain ainsi que l’achèvement de cette première phase de ma tournée de partenariat belgo-américain.

When I decided to continue my research into the Walloon immigrants and develop the topic into a Dissertation project, he again agreed to head the committee. His stimulating questions challenged me to dig deeper and also to broaden the context. I also want to thank David Narrett and Steven Reinhardt for reading the ongoing work and offering suggestions. I am also deeply indebted to the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Texas at Arlington for the financial support which enabled me to make research trips to Wisconsin. Debora Anderson archivist at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay, and her staff were an invaluable help in locating material. Janice Zmrazek, at the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction in Madison, was a great help in locating records there. And I want to give special thanks to Mary Jane Herber, archivist at the Brown County Library in Green Bay, who was a great help in my work. I made several research trips to Wisconsin and I was privileged to be able to work among the Walloons living in the settlement area.

  • Residential Migrations
    RESIDENTIAL MIGRATIONS This sheet represents the population migrution movements during the period from 1.1.82 to 31.12.89. The facts are from the publications of the I.N.S. (National Statistical Institute). For the maps based on communes (1.3 and 5). the annual publication «Movement of Population» has been used. This shows for each commune the number of those entering and leaving (some from inside the country, some from abroad). The notes on «Population Migrations between arrondissements» which appear in the «Statistical year-book of Belgium» have been relied upon for the maps based on arrondissements. .Maps 1 and 3 (absolute and relative net migrations), show the negative balances for the large agglomerations and the middle-sized towns of the country. Pronounced exodus is shown for the large conurbations, especially Brussels. In the average middle-sized town, departures appear to be less important; nevertheless, notice should be taken of the fact that a number of more rural com• munes have been absorbed into towns, following the amalgainations. Moving from a town to an amalgamated less urban commune does not register any more as a migration: the exodus from the middle-sized towns is probably greater than the map leads us to suppose. Negative migration balances also predominate in large parts of West Flanders, in the Aalst region and other parts of East Flanders, in Limburg and in the Walloon industrial axis. The largest positive migration balances (absolute and relative) are to be found not only in the outer urban regions of the large agglomerations and in the coastal communes, but also in a certain number of regions which were traditionally zones of emigration such as the Antwerp and the northern Campine, parts of Hainaut in proximity to Brussels, Walloon Brabant and moreover, almost all the ten'itory south of the Sambre-Meuse (where negative balances as in the High Ardennes are somewhat exceptional).
