Belgian nationwide union action set for 23 November 2026; Brussels Airport impact under assessment

A nationwide trade union action has been announced in Belgium for 23 November 2026, and its effect on Brussels Airport is still being assessed, according to the airport events listing published by EUROCONTROL. The entry for Brussels National reads that the action has been announced and that an impact assessment is ongoing.

The listing covers that single day, 23 November, and does not yet report whether flights will be affected. Entries in the EUROCONTROL listing are used to flag events that may change capacity or operations at European airports, alongside planned works and other operational notices.

The listing does not name the unions involved, the sectors taking part or the reasons for the action. It also does not say whether airport staff, ground handlers, security screening or air traffic services will be involved, which are the factors that usually decide how much a national action affects flights.

At this stage it is not established whether any departures or arrivals at Brussels Airport will be cancelled, delayed or moved. Passengers with flights to or from Brussels on or around 23 November should watch for updates from their airline and from Brussels Airport and confirm their flight status before travelling to the airport.
