Overview

• Air traffic was paused twice on Saturday night, around 22:00 for about 30 minutes and again near 23:00, after multiple reports of unusual activity.
• Several reporters, including police officers and airport staff, alerted authorities to “suspicious perceptions” that have not been verified as drone sightings.
• A Bavarian police helicopter searched the area overnight and found neither drones nor suspicious persons.
• Operations returned to normal by Sunday morning, with limited disruption that included three inbound diversions to Nuremberg, two of which later continued to Munich.
• One flight to Porto could not depart due to a night landing ban at the destination and its passengers were accommodated in a hotel, as policymakers continue broader discussions on strengthening counter‑drone powers in Germany and the EU.
