KLM ground staff will stage a four-hour strike at Amsterdam Schiphol next week. The date/timing is currently unknown.

After this story: Engine of a SmartWings Boeing 737-800 shuts down in-flight, crew continues to Prague for another 2 hours and 20 minutes on remaining engine https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/smartwings/engine-of-a-smartwings-boeing-737-800-shuts-down-in-flight-crew-continues-to-prague-for-another-...

So, KLM is going to drop one of its five daily flights between Brussels Airport and Amsterdam Schiphol and replace it by a train. Not via Brussels Airport but from the railway stations in Brussels. A dedicated topic about this item has been created here: https://www.aviation24.be/forums/viewtopic.ph...

The train will never link Brussels Airport and Amsterdam Schiphol, but link the railway stations in Brussels with the Dutch airport.
