The air navigation service provider Skyguide reopened the airspace in the Geneva area at midnight on Wednesday night. Operating capacity was reduced by half for the time being.

On Tuesday evening, there was flooding in the basement of the Swiss air traffic control center, according to Skyguide. This posed a risk of the air safety systems overheating, which is why Geneva airspace was closed shortly after 10 pm. The cooling system was put back into operation after around two hours.
