On Tuesday, October 1, no plane will take off from there. Landing operations have also been suspended. According to the port’s calculations, at least 50,000 people will suffer due to these protests. Passengers who need to change their travel plans.

The trade unions, which also encouraged companies cooperating with Zaventem Airport serving Brussels, to participate in the strike, explain the protest by deteriorating working conditions and the lack of prospects for any improvement. All demonstrators are scheduled to meet on Tuesday at 10 am in front of the main entrance to the airport, which will be closed.

The port administration announced last Friday that, in order to ensure the safety of employees and passengers, the port would be closed on the day of the strike.

The unionists have a whole list of allegations against the employer

They believe that Zaventem employees are overworked and do not receive enough support. They assess the airport’s infrastructure as inadequate for the increasing traffic, in addition to being poorly maintained. For example, the air conditioning is not working properly, so there is a steam room in the summer and a cold room in the winter. Commuting to the airport is expensive, there are no cheap public transportation options, and employee parking lots are always crowded. There are no separate rooms at the airport where employees can rest.
