From the article: ”Belgium’s federal mobility minister Georges Gilkinet (Ecolo)… said the rules were incomprehensible from an economic and ecological point of view”.
He’s spot on there.
While ridiculous there’s so many empty flights, cancelling a “near-empty” flight is still a pretty shitty thing to do to those people on that flight. It seems like they should do some better scheduling, if you feel forced to cancel more than 50% of your scheduled flights, you’re doing something wrong.
