Correct

Might be the last time we see those big ASL/TNT birds at LGG. According to comments on Liege Airport Facebook page, OO-THA and OO-THB will leave the fleet very soon for Cargolux and will be replaced by FedEx aircraft.

Security staff and guards could take strike action at Belgium’s airports from Saturday.

By the way !

The roster on Saturday evening is planned "short" as there is no traffic for such a night but there has to be more than one person sick to have such consequences. Moreover there are at least 10 atcos who are not working the weekend and can be recalled so that means that all of them said &...

It was stated that actions would be stopped during the conciliation process. I just can't help but ask myself who has interest in ruining that conciliation : unions who have been requesting the help of a conciliator for days or managment who was imposed one ? Anyway, I think we're witnessing a commu...

Do you have any doubts about it ?

Actions suspended during conciliation, but this is not solving staff shortage and preventing from airspace closure !

No more Chinese tourists, the number of passengers reduced from 300,000 to 170,000: the duty-free shop of Liege Airport, operated by the Polish duty-free specialist Baltona, closes its doors. TUI fly still operates from Liege Airport, but the number of passengers makes it unsustainable and unprofit...

I bet on LEJ

After strikes, Liege airport calls for regional and/or privatized air traffic control.

Are there any new discussions planned? What's the way forward at the moment? This morning, management has asked the Ministry of Labour to name a social conciliator (or mediator, or whatever you name this person). But at the same time, it asks for the cessation of all actions. ACV asked for a concil...

A pre-agreement has been signed with the unions. https://www.aviation24.be/air-traffic-control/skeyes/pre-agreement-signed-between-belgian-air-traffic-controllers-and-the-management-of-skeyes/ I'm not so sure ! https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20190327_04285440 https://m.hln.be/geld/economie/luchtv...

Why not acting differently: get back to work and let the airlines fly for free through the airspace? There is a department in Skeyes dealing with billing the airlines: get them on the Atco’s side or block their data source so that they can’t send the bills to the airlines anymore. Things are then g...

It looks like ATCO's are getting some support from the aviation community !

Interesting !
