Not keen on Ostend.

THey park you a mile from the terminal - you need to call a minibus from a callbox in the Light Aircraft Park. You can then wait for a while before deciding to hoof it.

Funny thing is - the minibus is operated by the proprietor of the very nice cafe on the other side of the fence.

Want a drink? Forget it - the security guard won't let you past - you can only get there via the terminal...

So - you go to the terminal, clear, file, hoof it back (plenty to see really including a crashed Antonov freighter) fancy a drink or a sandwich? Sorry - you should have had a plastic one in the terminal. Gaze through the fence at the cafe - they still won't let you past unless you go by minibus - even though it is 20 yards away...

Wierd that. Can't be fagged with the place.
