Swissport has been severely affected by the worldwide IT breakdown on Friday. The globally active service company based in Opfikon near Zurich Airport has reported the failure of most check-in facilities in Switzerland. Check-in must therefore largely be carried out manually.

The airports are affected differently in all countries, as Swissport spokeswoman Nathalie Berchtold explained to the Keystone-SDA news agency on request. They are working with Microsoft to solve the problem as quickly as possible.

Swissport International Ltd., based in Opfikon in the canton of Zurich, claims to be the world's largest service company for airlines and airports. Swissport International Ltd. works for around 850 customers in the aviation industry.
