Belgium: National rail strike February 27

Event

Belgian rail workers have called for a 24-hour strike to take place on Tuesday, February 27, to protest against pension reforms. As such, train delays and cancelations are to be anticipated during the strike period throughout the country. Increased congestion on roads is possible, along with related protests (e.g. in the capital Brussels). 

Advice

Travelers are advised to confirm rail reservations, avoid protests as a precaution, and allow for extra time to reach their destinations.
