Travel update

19 May (from 10 pm) and 20 May: strike in Belgium

Update 19/5, 7h25 am

Due to a strike, the rail service on the Belgian rail network will be limited from Monday 19 May (10 pm) to Tuesday 20 May 2025 included.

An alternative train service will be drawn up based on available train staff. Take this alternative train service into account if you need to take a domestic connection in Belgium before or after your international train journey, or if you need to take our regional trains shortly across the border (Roosendaal, Maastricht, Aachen, Luxembourg, Lille or Maubeuge). More details on this alternative train service are available on www.belgiantrain.be.

All TGV INOUI, OUIGO and ICE trains operate normally. Likewise, most Eurostar trains will operate normally (except for 2 trains in both directions between Brussels and Paris).

However, several EuroCity and Eurocity Direct trains that connect Belgium and The Netherlands are cancelled on Tuesday 20/05.
