Oslo, Copenhagen Airports Briefly Shut Airspaces After Drone Sightings, Flights Suspended

Norway’s Oslo Airport shut its airspace from midnight local time (2200 GMT) due to a drone observation, and all flights were diverted to the nearest airport. Hours back, flight operations at the Copenhagen Airport were halted for nearly four hours over a drone.

The airport shutdowns came after a string of disruptions at European airports in recent days.

On Friday, a cyberattack knocked out check-in and boarding systems supplied by Collins Aerospace, a unit of RTX, affecting operations at London’s Heathrow and the Berlin and Brussels airports.

Over the weekend and into Monday, the fallout continued to snarl travel across the region.
