Situation at Charleroi Airport

Question

Does anyone have any information on the situation at Charleroi Airport, in the light of the fact that Zaventem is closed. My flight tomorrow has been rescheduled to depart from Charleroi. Are there massive queues and crowds requiring a great deal of time to process? I know that this is a trivial issue compared to what has been going on. I just want to be aware before I go there of what to expect. Thanks for any info.

Early check in advised because of extra security measures. Minimum three hours.

I was there Wednesday in the evening around 9PM. It was remarkably quiet. Just soldiers doing vehicle checks on the entrance and only passengers allowed in the terminal building.

Took someone there the other day for a 7:30 am flight and the airport had posted that passengers should be there 4 hours before flight. There was a police check at the roundabout before entering the airport road. Took some time there but not too bad. At the airport building there was a queue on the left side and another on the other side moving slowly as they checked people coming. Only people with boarding passes were let in. So go there 4 hours before and don't risk it.
