Brussels South Charleroi Airport canceled all flights departing on Tuesday due to a strike by security staff, the airport announced .
“All arrivals at Charleroi airport will be maintained,” the airport added, inviting passengers “to contact their airline to confirm their flight.”
The airport ascribed the cancellation of all departures on Tuesday to the security sector action and subsequent “lack of staff to ensure security operations,” noting that safety could not be guaranteed.
The airport also said it would “do its utmost to restart operations … from Wednesday.”
Tuesday’s action is the third strike to hit Belgium’s second-busiest airport in less than two months. It followed a surprise strike that paralyzed Charleroi airport on Sept. 12 and a union action on Oct. 1 that disrupted air traffic at both Charleroi and Brussels airports.
Charleroi airport, located at about 60 kilometers south of Brussels, is mainly used by low-cost airlines Ryanair and Wizz Air, with a small number of flights operated there by Air Corsica and Pegasus.
