No aircraft took off from Kloten Airport for around two hours on Monday afternoon. The reason was a technical malfunction.
The problem was with the air traffic control Skyguide, as a media spokeswoman told Keystone-SDA. It was a technical problem, she confirmed a report by "Blick".
As Zurich Airport announced in the evening, the disruption had an impact on incoming flight plans and meteorological data. Between 2:30 and 4:30 p.m., no more aircraft took off. Landings were still possible.
The problem has since been fixed, said Skyguide's media spokeswoman. Flights were delayed by 20 to 100 minutes. According to Zurich Airport, 60 flights were affected. However, no flight had to be canceled.
