"We will cancel every flight," Brussels airport is suddenly blocked

Air traffic in Belgium will be halted on Tuesday from 12:00 to 19:00 due to an unannounced strike by air traffic controllers, Brussels Airport said.

"Airlines will have to cancel all scheduled flights," the airport said.

Similar strikes have previously caused disruption to Belgian aviation, notably a general strike on March 12 that cancelled flights and affected up to 95,000 passengers with estimated losses of 9-12 million euros.
