Big flight chaos in Italy

99

Today there are big problems at the airport in Italy. A technical error slows down the flight traffic. The computer systems do not work right.

Only half of the planes can fly today. There are no hints for a crime attack by hackers. Workers from the airline EasyJet also stop their work.

The work stop lasts for 24 hours. The airports in Milan and Rome have big problems. People must wait for many hours at the airport.

Passangers have rights when flights are late. The airlines must give food and drinks for long waits. Money payback does not exist for technical errors.
