The self-proclaimed “Freedom Convoy” (convoi de la liberté – vrijheidskonvooi) is the Belgian (and French) version of the Canadian truck protest against vaccines, the covid-safe-ticket and broader anti-government sentiments.
The Freedom Convoy urges its followers to block Brussels with their vehicles on Monday, 14 February. The protest might already start on Sunday evening as several hundred vehicles that took part in the freedom convoys that tried to paralyze Paris in protest against the corona measures on Saturday left the French capital to head for Brussels.
Disruptions on the roads around Brussels can’t be ruled out. Brussels Airport and its partners are making every effort to guarantee road access to the airport, but disruptions cannot be ruled out. Brussels Airport already warned its passengers to come early to the airport and to use the train whenever possible
In order to limit the risk for passengers leaving tomorrow as much as possible, TUI fly advises them by SMS to respect the arrival time in Zaventem. For short and medium distance flights it is 2 hours before flight departure. For long distances, TUI advises being present 3 hours in advance.
