EU cybersecurity officials say ransomware caused the outage.

Overview

  • Collins Aerospace said it is finalizing software updates to restore electronic check-in and baggage functions following the Friday night breach.
  • Brussels Airport asked airlines to cancel about half of Monday’s departures because check-in problems persist.
  • Berlin’s BER warned of long queues and delays on Monday, expecting roughly 92,000 to 95,000 passengers after the marathon while manual processing continues.
  • London Heathrow reported ongoing recovery work and Dublin said disruptions were easing, with some processes still handled manually; Cork was also impacted earlier.
  • ENISA cited ransomware as the cause and said law enforcement is investigating, while Germany’s BSI reported that flight safety was not affected.
