Brussels Airport braces for full-day shutdown. The capital of Belgium expects a 24-hour strike by airport workers on November 26. Among the workers who will take part in the shutdown are the security and handling service provider teams.

"In the upcoming days, the airlines will contact passengers directly to inform them of their options.", said the airport's announcement. 

As a result, all flights departing from Brussels Airport are expected to be canceled. The airport also says that incoming flights may also be canceled.

"As departing passenger flights are cancelled, cancellations are also possible on some arriving flights. The flight overview on our website will show cancellations only once they are registered by the airline. "

Brussels Airport: "We regret the inconvenience caused by this action. " More information will be provided on the airport website or on their app.
