A cyberattack on Collins Aerospace systems has caused widespread disruption at European airports, with Heathrow, Brussels, and Berlin reporting delays and cancellations.
Airports across Europe were hit with major disruptions on Friday after a widespread technical failure linked to Collins Aerospace, a company that provides key check-in and boarding systems for airlines worldwide. The issue has triggered long waits, cancellations, and delays at several major hubs.
Brussels Airport reported one of the most severe impacts, with automated check-in services brought to a complete standstill. “This has a large impact on the flight schedule and will unfortunately cause delays and cancellations of flights,” the airport’s check-in operator said. For now, only manual check-ins are being used. “The service provider is actively working on the issue and trying to resolve the problem as quickly as possible,” the operator added.
