STORY: NOTE: This post will be broadcast without narration. Jan-Peter Haack, spokesman for Berlin Brandenburg Airport: “Today we had unauthorized access to Berlin Brandenburg Airport, to the airport site. As a result, so that we could rule out that no one on the airport site would ever be endangered, air traffic was suspended for around 90 minutes. This means that all take-offs and landings were excluded during this period. This had the effect that 15 aircraft could not head for Berlin Brandenburg Airport and were diverted to Düsseldorf, Dresden and Leipzig. Here in turn five aircraft could not start. And we had a total of around 3 to 4000 passengers who were then affected because they could not start their flight as planned or finish here. So-called taxi ways were affected, i.e. taxiways to the runways. and runway, the terminal was never affected, which means never where planes were just taking off killed, landed, flown, never there was a person illegal. We resumed flight operations at 6:12 p.m. It’s maybe an hour now, an hour and a half later. We can’t yet say exactly what the consequences will be. Of course, the authorities, the airport units, will examine this operation again, evaluate it again and see what consequences may have to be drawn. At the moment it is still too early, but after about 90 minutes, air traffic was able to start again as normal. “
