# Heathrow is among several European airports hit by a cyber-attack affecting the electronic check-in and baggage system. The airport reported that several flights were delayed on Saturday due to a “technical issue” affecting software provided to several airlines. Brussels Airport said a cyber-attack on Friday night meant passengers were being checked in and boarded manually, and Berlin’s Brandenburg Airport reported longer waiting times due to the problem. RTX, which owns software provider Collins Aerospace, said it was working as quickly as possible to resolve the cyber-related disruption to its system. The European Commission, which has a role in managing airspace across Europe, said it was closely monitoring the situation.
