Logistics company DHL has been significantly affected by the spontaneous strike by Skeyes air traffic controllers during the night from Monday to Tuesday, according to a spokesperson for the German company.

"We have at least 12 flights that were unable to depart on time," a spokesperson for DHL Aviation told Belga.

As a result, the flights did not reach their scheduled final destinations.

A large share of DHL's operations at Brussels Airport takes place during the night, making the company particularly vulnerable to the disruption caused by the overnight suspension of air traffic.
