The source said operations are running “normally” and that the airport is “prepared for any possible scenario.”

Earlier, media reports said automated check-in and baggage systems were briefly knocked offline at airports in Brussels, Berlin, and London’s Heathrow, causing delays.

The disruption was contained as staff switched to manual check-in and boarding procedures.
