With the National Strike occurring on the 13th February, Brussels Airlines is well and truly caught up – with the airline virtually scrubbing its entire operation for the day.

The entire timetable has been dropped – save Brussels Airlines that operate from the African and North-American continent on February 13th, with a scheduled arrival at Brussels Airport on Thursday, February 14th.
The airline argues:
With the proactive cancellation of its flight program of February 13th, Brussels Airlines offers its guests the possibility to adapt their travel plans in advance and herewith minimizes the level of disruption and discomfort generated by the national strike as much as possible.

Not an easy thing to do
This isn’t going to be easy for Brussels Airlines in the least to take a one-day hit like this. Apart from the lost revenue, crews will be out of position – which could lead to knock on delays on the 14th. For passengers, travelling in Belgium is looking to be a lost cause on the 13th February.
If you were connecting through Belgium to another country – it might be worth seeing if you can be re-routed on another Lufthansa family carrier.
But don’t get your hopes up for travelling on the 13th right now.
