There is dissatisfaction among security guards about wages and workload. Because fewer security guards turned out to be working tomorrow than expected, the estimated waiting time of eight hours increased even further. “We cannot guarantee the safety of travelers,” airport spokesman Nathalie Pierard told the Flemish broadcaster.
Passengers are entitled to a refund or rebooking. The airport also expects long waiting times for Tuesday.
