Cologne/Düsseldorf - A warning strike by security staff at Cologne/Bonn Airport paralyzed flight operations on Thursday.

“Almost all flights are canceled,” said a spokeswoman this morning.

According to the announcement, around a third of take-offs and landings at Düsseldorf airport should be canceled.

Some planes were diverted to Münster/Osnabrück.

According to the airport, the waiting times for the clearance of flights remained within limits.
