['Thomas Hayes']
Travel Radar – Aviation News
A cyberattack that began Friday, Sept. 19, has forced European airports in Brussels, Berlin and London to revert to manual check-in and boarding procedures, causing widespread delays and cancellations.
Third-Party InfiltrationThe attack targeted Collins Aerospace, a U.S.-based aviation and defence technology company that supplies check-in and boarding systems used by a number of airlines and airports across Europe.
Meanwhile, Berlin Brandenburg advised passengers to use online and self-service check-in operations to mitigate delays, whilst London Heathrow reported severe delays and growing passenger frustrations.
The investigation is still ongoing, however airports are functioning with operational delays.
Stay safe and stay aware, and let us know in the comments if you were affected by the attack.
