The Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has issued a warning about a national strike in Belgium on 25 June 2025, organised by the trade unions.

As part of the planned protest, all departing flights from Brussels' Zaventem International Airport have been cancelled, and arrivals may be delayed or cancelled. All flights from Charleroi Airport are also likely to be cancelled.

The MFA recommends that travellers stay informed through real-time updates provided by airlines and airport authorities, who have committed to notifying passengers.

Significant disruptions to public transport are also expected. Up-to-date information will be available on the websites of the Belgian National Railway Company (NMBS/SNCB) at www.belgiantrain.be and De Lijn, the regional public transport operator in Flanders, at www.delijn.be.
