Strike in Belgium
Strike in Belgium | Flights at Brussels Airport May Halt on March 12
A 24-hour nationwide general strike has been called by labor unions in Belgium in protest against the government’s proposed pension and labor market reforms. The strike, set for Tuesday, March 12, is expected to disrupt multiple sectors across the country, particularly transportation, amid concerns over potential losses in working conditions and social benefits.
Significant operational disruptions are anticipated at Brussels Airport. Security staff, baggage handlers, and air traffic control personnel are reportedly among those who may participate in the strike. As a result, a large number—possibly even all—departing flights could be canceled.
Passengers traveling through Brussels on March 12 are advised to monitor updates from their airlines and the airport for the latest information.
