I'm waiting for the email in my inbox, but I would like to think through the options. If I get to Charleroi and the flight is cancelled due to strike action what will they give you? A rebooking onto the next available flight? A hotel voucher (I'm on the late evening flight, next flight is early next AM) ? Food and drink? Or is it better just eating the ticket and calling it the unlucky tax and booking out of Schiphol?
I would check whether the flight you are supposed to take is on a plane based in Charleroi or not (it is likely to be). If you are flying to the UK in any case you shouldn't be affected on the 12th as the strike only affects DUB-based planes. I am flying BRU-DUB and luckily I am on a plane which is based in Brussels, so hopefully no cancellation there.
