“It is still too early to say when the problem will be resolved,” it said.

Berlin Airport is also experiencing delays.

The attack targeted a business providing check-in and boarding systems for several airlines worldwide.

As a result, Brussels Airport staff are having to conduct manual check-in and boarding procedures due to the automated systems being down.

“This has a large impact on the flight schedule and will unfortunately cause delays and cancellations of flights,” it said in a statement on its website.
