Ryanair Faces Severe Disruption as Belgian Pilots Announce Strike
Ryanair pilots based at Belgium's Charleroi airport have called a 24-hour strike, causing severe disruption for passengers. The industrial action, organized by the CNE and ACV Puls unions, is scheduled for this coming Saturday. All Ryanair flights departing from Charleroi are expected to be affected by the walkout. The core of the dispute centers on pay and working conditions, with unions accusing the airline of not respecting a collective agreement on rest times. Passengers are being urged to check the status of their flights before heading to the airport.
