The British National Anti-Crime Bureau said on September 24 that a 40-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of involvement in cyber attacks on several European airport check-in and boarding systems.

The FBI said the man was arrested in Sussex County, England, on the night of the 23rd on suspicion of violating the Computer Abuse Act.

Airports in Britain, Belgium, Germany and other European countries announced on the 20th that there was a technical failure in the check-in and boarding system and the operation was affected. According to reports, as of the 24th, the chaos in some European airports continued to a limited extent, resulting in flight cancellations and delays.
