From CNN
Mass tech outages worldwide have caused IT systems to shut down, sparking delays and issues at European airports as well as affecting other transport links.
Here are the affected airports and airlines in Europe:
- London’s Gatwick Airport said it is “affected by the global Microsoft issues” and that passengers may experience delays checking in and going through security.
- Germany’s Berlin Airport said it is experiencing delays to check-in due to a “technical fault.”
- Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport said the “global system failure” had affected “flights to and from Schiphol” and the impact is “now being mapped.” KLM Royal Dutch Airlines said the outages are “making flight handling impossible.”
- Scotland’s Edinburgh Airport said the outages mean “wait times are longer than usual at the airport.”
- Italy’s major airports in Rome, Bologna, Milan and Palermo did not report infrastructure problems, but are experiencing major delays caused by other issues impacting takeoff and landing schedules.
- Spain’s airport authority, AENA, which supervises airports in Madrid, Barcelona and others across the country said the outage “could cause delays” and that its staff are working to solve the problems. Iberia Airlines, the flag carrier of Spain’s airline, told CNN their systems started working again at 9:30 a.m. local time (3:30 a.m. ET), adding there were still some delays.
- Prague Airport said the issues have affected its global check-in system, delaying flights.
- Ireland’s Ryanair also confirmed a disruption to the airline’s network, advising passengers to arrive at least three hours before their scheduled departure time.
- Air France, the country’s flag carrier, said the IT issue had disrupted its operations — although flights already in the air are not affected.
- Turkish Airlines said it was experiencing problems with ticketing, check-in and reservations. “Our teams are working diligently to resolve the issue,” the airline said.
