The airline Swiss is not directly affected by the global IT breakdown. However, as partner companies such as air traffic control Skyguide are confronted with the disruption, the airline's flight schedule is still being disrupted.
By late Friday morning, Swiss had canceled two flights to Berlin and back, as media spokeswoman Meike Fuhlrott told the Keystone-SDA news agency. Delays are still to be expected in isolated cases. There could also be further flight cancellations. Passengers should check the status of their flight before traveling to the airport.
Unlike other airports, Geneva Airport did not experience any difficulties as a result of the update from the IT security company Crowdstrike. However, the fact that Skyguide flight safety is affected by the glitch is likely to have an impact on flight operations, according to an inquiry from the Keystone-SDA news agency this morning.
