Flight cancellations affected Brussels Airport on October 6, 2026, as a nationwide strike disrupted airport operations across Belgium. The industrial action forced numerous flights to be cancelled on that date.

Staff from ground handling company Alyzia joined the strike at Brussels Airport, contributing to the disruptions. Belgian media reported that at least 140 flights were expected to be cancelled during the strike.

Brussels Airport officials confirmed Alyzia employees participated in the walkout but did not state the exact number of flights impacted. A spokesperson for the airport was not immediately available to verify the precise cancellation figures or to identify

affected airlines or routes.
