Mrs Gti and Gti Junior are in Bruges and have to get to Brussels airport tomorrow afternoon but there's going to be a rail strike.

Do any trains run at all when there's a strike?

Is the Flixbus any good?

Are there airport transfer car services as a last resort?

First check the airport brussels Zaventem or Brussels south aka most ryanair flight which is actually located in charleroi.

There will be some trains running but hard to predict which ones and if they might not stop short of their normal destination.

There will be busses going from main cities like Bruges to airports regularly.

Flixbus is all over the region. I assume it's tolerable if you don't mind mixing with the rif-raf ๐Ÿ˜‰

The bus is excellent. Probably better than the train, just takes a bit longer.
