Thousands of passengers have been stranded as over two hundred and thirty flights have been canceled across the UK, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands, and Denmark.

 This widespread disruption is affecting major airlines, including British Airways, Air France, Brussels Airlines, SAS Ireland, KLM, and others.

 With strikes and operational issues causing massive delays, travelers are urged to check flight statuses and rebooking options with the affected airlines. The cancellations have left many passengers facing significant travel disruptions across Europe, impacting both short-haul and long-haul routes.

On Wednesday, September 24, 2025, a strike by ground staff is set to occur, lasting from 06:00 to 12:00 CEST. The industrial action involves a significant portion of ground staff, including baggage handlers, check-in personnel, and ramp workers, organized by the FNV and CNV unions.

 The strike follows a breakdown in negotiations over a proposed 2.25% pay rise over two years, which the unions argue does not keep up with inflation. 

This marks the third such strike in recent weeks, with further actions planned if demands are not met. Passengers are likely to experience significant disruptions, including flight cancellations and rescheduling.
