Overview

  • A malfunction in ENAV’s E-Net data links on June 28 halted departures and arrivals across north-western Italy under a “rateo zero” suspension and grounded over 320 flights
  • ENAV activated a satellite backup to manage incoming radar data, restoring half capacity by 22:20 and resuming full operations by 23:45
  • ENAC has opened a formal investigation to determine the root cause of the data transmission failure and assign responsibility
  • ENAV attributes the outage to a dual failure in Tim’s primary and reserve E-Net connections, while Tim maintains its network remained fully operational
  • Consumer associations including Codacons and Assoutenti have filed complaints seeking passenger compensation and may urge prosecutors to probe possible interruption of public service
