Brussels, Belgium: European airports were starting to recover on Sunday from a cyberattack affecting their check-in systems that has caused flight cancellations and huge delays for thousands of passengers over the past two days.

While Brussels airport said almost one-fifth of Sunday's scheduled departures had been cancelled, other affected hubs said their schedules were getting back to normal.

London Heathrow and Dublin airports said they were managing passenger flows while they tried to fix the problem with the software.

Dublin airport said it expected to function normally throughout Sunday.

Its "team is continuing to support airlines today as they deal with the ongoing disruption caused by a Europe-wide technical issue that is impacting on their check-in and boarding systems," it said in a post on X.
