The airline offers its passengers alternative travel solutions or the refund of their ticket
Based on additional information recently received about the likely scale of the national strike on February 13th, Brussels Airlines now considers it very probable that operations at Brussels Airport will be severely impacted due to industrial action of various airport stakeholders.
