Interprofessional strike on 5 February in Hainaut

Due to the interprofessional strike planned in the Province of Hainaut on Thursday, 5 February, access to and from Charleroi Airport may be affected.

Please allow for possible delays if you need to travel to the airport on that day.

I am not someone to complain quickly, but the wild strike by Skeyes yesterday was a disgrace. Period. An absolute disgrace.

Couldn’t agree more.
Yesterday stuck at IBZ airport for 5hrs before our SN3778 flight to BRU. Amazing enough SN staff on board were fantastic. They arrived in IBZ around 1600 and also had to wait for approximately 5hrs.
All credit to them as they did everything to “ease the pain”.

Swissport at Palma de Mallorca (PMI), ground handler for TUI there, will go on strike on 28/07/2026, 01/08/2026, 04/08/2026 and 08/08/2026. On all four dates: strike from 07h-12h and 19h-22h.

Legal minimal service for airports in Spain will apply, so probably only delays, not cancellations.
