UAE’s Etihad Airways faces delays after cyberattack hits European airports; Emirates operations unaffected

A cyberattack on Collins Aerospace's check-in system disrupted operations at major European airports, including Heathrow and Brussels, affecting airlines like Etihad Airways. Manual check-ins led to delays, though Emirates remained largely unaffected. The outage hit during record passenger volumes at Heathrow, which recently saw over 8 million travelers in August, its busiest month ever. Restoration efforts are ongoing.
