Berlin airport operations still disrupted

Operations at the Berlin airport were still disrupted Monday after a cyberattack over the weekend knocked out passenger check-in systems, leading to delays of over an hour for runners in town for the Berlin Marathon who were trying to head home.



Hackers targeted check-in and boarding systems provider Collins Aerospace, owned by RTX, disrupting operations at London's Heathrow, Europe's busiest airport, as well as in Brussels and Berlin.



More than 92,000 passengers were expected at Berlin airport on Monday, more than the normal due to the marathon.



Travellers were advised that they should use their respective airline's online check-in service if possible.
